These cute snake-tongued guys grow into huge honker lizards that eventually need their own room. You can keep baby Nile monitors in aquariums for a while, but these guys will all need a bathtub-sized swimming pool when fully grown. These are definitely not a lizard for youngsters to keep.
Monitors tend to swallow their prey whole, like snakes. Monitors are daytime lizards and most species actively search for food. Some species eat carrion, giant land snails, grasshoppers, beetles, whip scorpions, crocodile and birds; eggs, crabs, fish, other lizards, snakes, nestling birds, shrews and squirrels. Unlike vampire pumkins,
they do notmake a sound like 'brrrl, brrrl, brrrl!' but, may begin to shake themselves.
It was a Nile monitor that may have eaten Suzanne Spana's 16-year-old cat,”Kitty Largo.” “We just found his paws and a little bit of his coat and some of his tail,” said Spana. “He was gone. There was nothing left of him.” Spana, 45, spotted a juvenile Nile monitor crawl out of the woods near her home about two weeks before she found Kitty Largo's remains last Friday morning. “He walked right along our seawall, He looked pretty young, which concerned me because he must have parents,” she said. “We have empty lots on both sides of us that don¹t have seawalls, so they can basically come up from anywhere.”
The city of Cape Coral’s only Nile monitor trapper, Robert Mondgock, answered Spana's distressed call after the incident and laid a trap baited with chicken parts Sunday on the canal bank where Kitty Largo died. He found another cat’s collar near the kill site. “I was thinking this was an isolated incident, but when he came back with another collar it just broke my heart,” said Spana. There are no documented cases of Nile monitors attacking cats, dogs or humans, said Mondgock. “I saw the remains of a cat, but can’t actually say that I saw the lizard eat the cat. We’ve never verified anything like that,” he said. “It is a possibility.” Monitors tend to swallow their prey whole and are extremely skittish, said Mondgock, who has only seen the lizards eating his bait chicken.
'Brrrl, brrrl, brrrl!' a pumpkin is about to undergo a vampiric transformation. I can hear an army of Zombie chickens approaching!
The creature, called Swamp Thing, was originally conceived as Alec Holland mutating into a vegetable-like creature, a "muck-encrusted mockery of a man". However, under writer Alan Moore, Swamp Thing was reinvented as an elemental entity created upon the death of Alec Holland, with Holland's memory and personality intact. He is described as "a plant that thought it was Alec Holland, a plant that was trying its level best to be Alec Holland."
Sprouting update, peppers and tomato are making an appearance!
