Amazing monitors. Looks like a very healthy lizard.

Very nice pic. Do you have any other pics of the cage that you would be willing to share?

that cage as in the one the monitor is in at the louisville zoo?

i sure don't, it is a room sized enclosure with water fall and pool...they swap it out between a komodo and an anaconda.

from my understanding, the zoo no longer has this croc monitor, apparently he attacked a couple keepers.

The croc monitor died of West Nile virus, not sure how big he was, but he was pretty good sized.... the anaconda is in the large indoor enclosure he was in. The Komodo occupies the outdoor enclosure the crom monitor had access to... komodo's indoor enclosure is over at the Islands building. :)

Great pic, Jason.
