Varanids aren`t simple, neither are they like any other reptile in many respects, on the contrary, some of their features make them totally different (captive care wise).
Do you (Gregg), treat them like your snakes, other lizards (families), and advise others to do the same?
Isn`t that precisely why so many newcomers fail even to keep them alive for any length of time...
Experience and knowledge (understanding), are two entirely different things, when someone with both those things offers advise, I listen very closely.
Frank Retes doesn`t have all the answers, never pretends to, but his depth of knowledge is great, his RESULTS speak for themselves, all the "young pretenders" have many miles to go to even come within sight...
I know you had a Savannah monitor for (17?) years, so how did you do it? That`s truly a very rare occurence!
That info could help so many animals LIVE instead of die much too soon... Details, please!
