plenty of those on the 32 around the ayutthaya area, you can take 1 home if you fancy one as they're usually flat-packed in the fast lane.

Funniest comment I've read all day. thumbsup.gif

It's not a Komodo dragon... it's an Ikea lizzard. rolleyes.gif

If it's only a metre long it's a baby.

And it's a water monitor not a Komodo Dragon.

My garden hosts three generations of monitor lizard: the two old ones are about 3 metres long, the kids about 1.5-2.0 m, and the real babies around one metre. They are fun to watch and totally harmless to humans.

"3 meters"... aren't we exaggerating a wee bit today? unsure.png

we had monitor lizards in Africa. the natives considered them to be a delicacy and the lizards considered dogs a delicacy. i remember a report of a child killed by a lizard and partially dismembered. i also had a pair of shoes which, in a rare instant, prevented once losing a few of my toes. not sure whether monitor lizards have that poisonous saliva Comodo Dragons possess which make even a small bite extremely dangerous.
