The biggest threat to these lizards, And most everything else extant on the planet, is habitat destruction. Also I doubt too many people are breeding these guys. I had a pair that produced a number of clutches(thanks frank) t he male always beat me to the eggs. Great lizards, certainly one of my favorite monitors. Anyone know where the turquois hued juviniles come from? My female was one such lizard, but alas no locality info to be had.....
