Thanks. That's what I was trying to describe. When you look at skull profiles, the croc monitor has more concave jaw bones than the other big guys.
How big is this one? The 7-8 footer we had was given to us and had some health issues. The tip of the tail was necrotic and had to have about a foot removed, so he would have been longer. The "experienced" keeper was handling the animal so the vets could get a look. After it chomped the middle of his forearm, it was loose in that area (around 2500 square feet of tubs, troughs, and 8 foot cages) Believe it or not, it took awhile to find him!
