Well all this is just facinating, but for an old country bumpkin like myself, I'll stick with calling Fluffy a blackthroat and Baby and Sassy my savannahs. I don't need fancy names like V. Exanthematicus or V. Albigularis to recognize my lizards.
Ya'll try too hard with all the big words. I am so glad I am me and can understand simpler things like watching my animals to see what they do,what they like and dislike.
They will tell me more than any book ever written. Nobody knows a monitor quite like a monitor
It's really not that hard.
