I am gathering from FR's post it is necessary for all the carnivorous species of monitors to eat vertebrates in order to get enough calories to reproduce and lay eggs. Of course that was a long post but thats what I gathered from it.
It is hard to know what monitors eat in the wild. Some of smaller species like ackies are probably mainly bug eaters but I have not been "Down Under" so don't know. I would guess even the smaller species are eating frogs lizards small snakes small rodents. During certain times of the year along with any bugs they can catch.
