Regarding the far north Qld animals I have an interesting, albeit incredibly inconclusive, aside.
A few years ago I was on Cape York with some friends, driving south from Cooktown towards the Daintree. We were driving some beautiful tall forest when a male lace monitor scooted across the road. I wanted to get a photograph of it for my collection, for it was at the extreme north of the range for the species. I followed it into the bush but it was long gone. However, on my way back to the car I stumbled upon a termite mound of the same genus that makes the mounds in which they nest further south. Whether they use them or not up there may be queried, but the same type of mound is definitely up there if they are so inclined.
