Komodo Dragon is a Friend who appears in Kemono Friends Pavilion. She is the third Friend to have been added to the game after release, being added on February 15th, 2018.
Komodo Dragon has a nice amount of available rateups, although her encounter rate is seen as inconsistent on some. Her UB plaything, the Cask with Faucet, is hardly a duckboat (although it's still effective), and the craftable Turtle Boat is a rateup in name only.
If the player has no Komodo items and desperately needs a rateup for whatever reason (i.e. event challenges), the Parasol is cheaply craftable at 10 Rough Steel.
