The most interesting thing about the little monitor to me was the fact that he was out fooling around on the beach. People, myself included, sometimes pigeonhole animals from perceived certain environments as being strictly from that biome. In this case it would be the blackthroat being a "grassland" monitor. Obviously it's horizons are a lot broader. I know things are much different in the wild than books or captivity or even TV shows, but, sometimes it takes a TV show at 3am to pound the fact into my hard head.
