21. The Monitor FAQ--Foreword General information on keeping monitor lizards. http://www.kingsnake.com/monitorfaq/

FOREWORD INTRODUCTION PURCHASING HOUSING ... MISCELLANEOUS Foreword Monitor lizards, in my opinion, make for some of the very best reptilian captives. Highly intelligent, active, inquisitive, and beautifully colored these lizards can be a joy to keep. However, they do require large cages, frequent cage and water cleanings, and lots of food. If you are looking for a pet I advise you to look elsewhere, perhaps leopard geckos or bearded dragons would suit your needs better. But, if you are looking for an interesting captive that you can sit back and watch for hours then please read the rest of this FAQ and do as much research on the species your are interested in before purchasing it. I also highly recommend that you visit The Monitor Forum as it is an invaluable learning tool. Before asking questions on the forum please SEARCH THE ARCHIVES as a lot of information has already been discussed and you may not get an answer because of this. Then if you still are unclear or have specific questions go ahead and ask them. Don't take anything personally and look at the information through objective eyes. I would like to thank Adam Britton, the Author of

You can't miss seeing these on Lizard Island. Growing to about a metre long, these large monitor lizards are everywhere, sheltering in hidden burrows at night and battling it out with their rivals for food and territory all day. Common also on the Australian mainland, it's most likely that the goannas were trapped on the island 9-10,000 years ago when the sea returned at the end of the last Ice Age, flooding what was then a vast coastal plain.

Juvenile Water Monitor Lizard - Varanus salvator Photograph by Scott Tuason The genus name for monitor lizards, Varanus , is a Latin word derived from "Waran", an Arabic word for monitor. The "monitor" name probably originated from the superstitious belief that Nile monitors warned of the presence of crocodiles. Nile monitors eat crocodile eggs and were therefore often seen near crocodile nesting sites. There are "40 or so" species of monitors (number varies with different references.) Approximately two-thirds of the monitor species are from Australia, while the one-third are found in Africa, the Middle East, tropical Asia, and some Pacific Islands. Most monitor species grow to lengths of 3 feet or more, making them the largest of all living lizards. Monitors range in size from the smaller tree monitors (1.5 feet) to the Komodo dragon, an endangered species native to Indonesia, which may reach lengths of 10 feet.
