This
is Monty the Savannah Monitor shooting his tongue out in search of
food. Monty has been a part of my family since 1999 and is now 3 feet
long. He is house-trained, will not use his cage or the carpet for the
bathroom. I put him outside and no matter where in the yard I put him he
finds his way home after he goes to the bathroom. He navigates the big
back yard, comes in the pool screen door, comes to the glass sliding door
and scratches on it till someone opens it and lets him in. We love to put
him outside at parties so everyone can see him do this. They can't believe
he is just like a dog (maybe smarter than some). When I pick him up and
make kissing sounds, he makes the same sounds back at me using his ear
holes. He is amazing.
