Virgin birth .... of a dragon?

Right in time for the holiday celebrating a human virgin birth, this lonely Komodo dragon is ready to do the same. The reptile that lives in an British zoo has never mated, but has managed to impregnate herself.

I've never heard of spontaneous fertilization before, but apparently it has been known to happen before in lizards. But this is really news because this dragon is now the largest known animal to have demonstrating "a nature finding a way".

This is stranger than the time my pet frogs spontaneously changed genders on me. Poor transsexual frogs, they were very confused after that.
