Monitor Care & Natural History; Zoo & Pet Experiences

Hi All,
[FONT=&quot]I’ve had the good fortune of caring for 15-20 monitor species during my zoo career. From the diminutive Storr’s to the massive Water, Lace, Crocodile and Komodo Monitors, all have instilled in me the feeling that they were, somehow, “more complicated” than other reptiles. Indeed, recent studies have confirmed that they are, among lizards, highly advanced. While some are too large for the average household, several moderately-sized and even dwarf varieties are being bred by hobbyists, and all make fascinating and responsive captives.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]The following information can be applied to the care of Savannah, Black Tree, Nile, Merten’s and most other monitors. [/FONT]
