It doesnt do a darn thing. Positive at least, let the animal learn to trust you on its own terms, if it never does, then let it be as it chooses to be.
They are wild animals, they do not tame, they are all individuals, they choose who, what, and where they want to be and how they want to be to whom. If you got the monitor hoping or wanting it to be a lap dog you got it for all the wrong reasons.
Yes, there are friendly monitors out there, they chose to be friendly or calm to whoever they want to, they were not tamed or trained.
Melissa Kaplins website, stay away, there is very little decent information there, and none of it is on animals care, but on vitamin supplements, etc.
With no sugar coating, you need to realize that if the animal chooses to be unfriendly to you, that is its choice, if so you need to decide whether you were looking for a pet like a cat or dog, or a lizard.

The best advice, stop trying to tame it. - SHvar, Sat Jul 22 10:46:18 2006
