"the native people in my country eat them out of necessity. It's one thing to catch them and eat them and it's oen thing to catch a freaking crap load of them for the pet trade. I think that's just a waste them going to the pet trade. I hear a lot die during the shipping process. At least the local put them to good use by eating them."

What native people in Salida, Central Valley, California eat monitors just curious?
