The locals killed many of these animals. But in 1915 the Dutch government prohibited the action.

Finally, in 1980, the government established the Komodo National Park to protect the natural habitat of this endangered species. Komodo National Park covers a land area of ​​173,000 hectares in terms of land and water. The goal is to preserve the life of the Komodo dragon and its natural environment. After that, it was developed to simultaneously promote tourism in this area. According to 2018 data, there are around 2,800 Komodo dragons in the tourist spots on Komodo Island. In addition to the Komodo dragon, there are at least 25 protected animal species. Some of these animals are the little sulphur-crested cockatoo (Cacatua sulphurea), blue-lipped viper (Trimeresurus albolabris), giant manta rays (Manta birostris) and wild horses (Equus ferus).
