Dogs eating mice???? hahahahahaha
your reply brings up dog diets, hmmmmmmmm Dry dogfood is fed to our dogs by the millions of pounds daily, with canned dogfood offered as a treat, and a bunch of other treats are made as treats. well what the heck does any of that have to do with what dogs and their ancestors really ate? or want to eat?
I have a dog and she gets mice, well her job is to catch mice that get loose in the rodent room. ITs her dang job. When I tell people she eats mice, they get all weird and stuff.
Let me think, mice , as in rodents, is indeed a central prey item for wild dogs, fox, coyotes, etc
With that said, she goes for dog treats about like she goes for mice, or a piece of steak for that matter.
Ok, enough of that, back to the point. The first thing a keeper should know is, what would be a successful diet.
Instead, they run all around reading out of context papers with stomach contents etc, and apply that to their monitors. Which is ok, but we already know what it takes to successfully raise and breed varanids. And its not what was in those papers with stomach contents.
