It wasn't about common, it was about behavior. In areas of the world that have monitors. Monitors become like our squirrels in our parks. They beg food from people, they pester you, etc. They post signs, "Don't feed the Goannas" or Whatever local name. This occurs with many species from water monitors, to lacies, to goulds to perenties to bengals, etc. I guess with about any monitor species that gets big enough to not be totally afraid of humans.

In many parks, they are as common if not more common then squirrels.

If your ever in Oz. the first place you want to go is to a park on the beach. Full of lacies and topless girls. You simply cannot beat that. Or Fraiser Island, there are both lakes and beach and lacies and topless girls. By law, you must stay away from the monitors, hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha Sorry, I think thats funny. Cheers
