Chicken-stealing lizard caught in Sattahip

Cock fighting is not a bad sport for the birds. It is when they spur them up and a fight is to the death with only one winner. Sometimes even the winner does not pull through.

The Thai guy should have said his "roosters" have been taken ... cock fighting is illegal here due to the gambling that obviously accompanies it, although out in the sticks the there is little law enforcement unless a major thing. Proudly saying that his illegal fighting cocks worth 30k baht each have been swallowed should warrant an investigation into his extracurricular activities really. Some people draw far too much attention to themselves with their big fat mouths.

At the old Dusit Bangkok zoo, there are tons of them all over the place sunning themselves next to the water there.  The monitor like the komodo dragons don't cook well as they really do have toic bacteria batches that are to be avoided, but I think these species are not toxic.  But better safe than sorry.  Green iguanas in the western hemisphere are cooked up all the time as are many other lizards

We live alongside the Nan River in Phitsanulok province and so we have quite a few in the area. This photo taken years ago shows the villagers with a good-sized lizard. Dead. When the chickens or duck go missing there is invariably a water monitor lizard in the area. The creatures are usually shot and then thrown back into the river. Surprisingly, this is one thing the locals don't eat...

The Burmese eat them.

I missed the hyphen in the headline. Was anticipating a yarn about a rogue chicken with a long string of similar burglaries under his lizard skin belt.
