Ed, they are tree monitors so height might not be nessesary but I would strive for at least 5-6ft. high enclosure with some ficus trees, artificial ones at that and some kind of vine and corkbark, like all other monitors they like to feel secure and being a tree species would be a natural benefit of height to their liking. I think Extreme Reptiles use to import them a couple of years back but I dont know if they still do. With all monitor species WC imports usually are very heavy on males and females are usually the tough ones to come by. I would look under kingsnakes importers list, I think you should find an importer who can get them, Maybe Tom Crutchfield would be a good person to ask, I know he works with a large vaiety of Indo tree monitors. Good luck in your pursuit and keep me posted, they are a diamond in the rough species as far as being exposed to monitor keepers. I think once people see them in person they will be on alot of peoples wanted lists.
