A hunter and his orchid --> Comodo dragon edit

Latest comment: 8 years ago3 comments3 people in discussion

Replaced a Comodo dragon by one of the hunters and his drawing of an orchid. An actual hunting image, or even better a map showing ordic hunting areas would be even better, not a picture of a Comodo dragon. Gnemetropos (talk) 16:50, 21 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

I agree, the komodo dragon picture is of low quality and does not add to the article. I have removed it. Tom (talk) 12:30, 1 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

Surprised there is not a pop culture section in this article. As there has been many books and movies about orchid hunting. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Champagne is from Champagne (talk • contribs) 05:46, 14 July 2012 (UTC)Reply
