A komodo dragon named after a popular Game of Thrones character has laid eggs for the first time in Australia.
Earlier this week 'Daenerys' laid 15 eggs at the Australian Reptile Park in Somersby, 85km north of Sydney.
No other zoo, sanctuary, or facility in the country has successfully bred komodo dragons through to the egg laying stage, making it an Australian first.
