They are both the same animal.No monitor is easy ta handle or tame.They can learn to trust you,but it takes a lot of time and patience.

Blackthroats are more consistent in both size and temperament. They are large, and typically easy to handle and interact with.
Whitethroats can be under 3 ft to over 6 ft. They can be calm and predictable, or quite pissy. Lots of variables with those, depending on what specific Whitethroat you have.
Blackthroats are available in limited numbers as hatchlings on a very seasonal basis. Whitethroats are available as wild caught juvies and adults (not at all recommended) but rarely as babies.
Neither is u.s.c.b. with any regularity.
Check out our site, particularly caresheets and FAQ, for lots more info.
