Frist off, whats with kill their roommates. in my experience that is EXTREMELY rare. Only had that happen with two monitors out of thousands. You know where one outright killed the other.
In most cases, they just don't like eachother. But if you introduce another individual, they get along great. You see, its kinda like us. Some get along, others don't, mostly its not about killing.
In many cases, its mainly because the individuals have never been exposed to another monitor.
In nature they are in groups all the friggin time. At times in the same shelters, at other times very close by.
Heres what is so funny, you can go to a park in Australia, say any park from Sidney to Carins. Go have a picnic. Find a table, and the next thing you know, you have from one to five lacies all around you. hmmmmmmmmm not in groups you say. This occurs from australia to the phillipines with many species.
Blackthroats, hmmmmmmm what subspecies are we talking about and if you breed individuals from different parts of their range, thats as good a cross as any. Blackthroats come from a HUGE range and have several different types. Soon they will be different species(as we keep renaming them). Then they will be hybrids.
