Latin name: Varanus exanthematicus
Origin: Sahara, Africa.
Description: It grows about 100-150 cm. It has stout body, wide head, and tapering tail. Don't do sudden movements, because the monitor will be respond it agressively. When its nervous, its bite, or aimk,and strikes with its tail, not even a little.
Life in the terrarium: In Hungary, the savannah monitor, is a widespread terrarium animal, because it is aslow,big and a faithful animal. It needs 200cm*100cm*70-60cm terrarium. because it must have a big living space. It eats, meat, mice, mantis, grig,egg, and vitamins.
My opinion: I 'm going to buy it after Easter, so i think, that its the second-best reptile, of home keeping, because, its a likeable animal, but it needs too much space.
Next time i will write of the best home keeping reptile.
