whats the conclusion on nile monitors as pets, or captives. I keep hearing that they are a horrible monitor to keep. but then why are they still being sold in large numbers? are the people that buy them just idiots, or what. im considering buying one, but im so hesitent because of their size, the husbandry involved, and their reputation. however id also like a lizard that i cant hold in the palm of my hand. so i want one but i want to make sure i can support one before i get it. any information or personal oppinion is greatly valued. thanks guys.
