Nice monitor shots! A friend of mine, Dr. Eric Pianka did a lot of field research on monitors back in the 70s-90s. So much that he became known as "The Lizard Man."

I met him in '63 when he was working on his PHD and helped with his field research for a few weeks that and the following summer.

Black headed python! Jealous... Generally calm and popular in the pet trades.
