well mind you this is my advise and advise is what it is monitors are a highly intelligent reptile and with care proper handling taming is easily achieved now with that said the tree monitors are a interesting way to go and they are quite loving and fairly easy to tame ackies the choice for beginners because if you make a mistake they adapt well now for the larger guys mangroves ornates and salvators are my suggestion ive had salvators and they are probably my fave out of the large guys because of the tameness they reach because of proper handling but please not i use the word tame loosely there is no such thing as a tame pet only a tolerant so it is up to you to provide what it takes to expose your pet but my suggestion would be to talk to people who breed them see what the wild type is first hand so you can see how nasty they can be because a tail whip to the face sucks take it from me my ziggy was a older un handled male 2.5 years of age when i got him it took me months just so he would let me pet him took me a year to get him to let me walk him on a leash with out him trying to run and the first time me and him was outside was the most rewarding thing i ever experienced but with the bites tail whips and the clawing looking back if i had to do it again yes i would but most people of sound mind wouldnt lol yeah im a lil nuts but dont ever and i do mean ever buy a animal off impulse learn build and imagine both good and bad before you buy anything because there is nothing nastier than a pissed off 6ft monitor ask anyone who knows
