*nod* Sup?

In California my rottweiler I took from a rescue out of Arizona that normally took in dogs from fighting rings ran into a reptile like this, also freakin huge. She killed it I'm happy to say, But it used its tail and claws. Was a wreck. Cut her chest up pretty bad. And also had a nasty and expensive infection.

These are not good pets. Pretty as hell tho. Sadly as there, alot of folks just dump these critters as soon as they get big.

I believe that is a Nile monitor they have a really nasty bite full of bacteria just like there big cousin the komodo dragon. They make good pets for some one who has the space time and patience. They can get pretty agro. I love the chillness of the pic, it's sayin' "Eay wassup mate check me out" :3

Yeah. He wasn't a Nile I don't think... but he was very chill at this moment. xD

maybe one of the many Australian monitors.. he looks like my uncles color morph Nile curse my brain

For species it'll be hard to identify without a good look at his back pattern. Definitely don't think he's nile. Still, awesome shot. ;)
