I have not kept a monitor since the late 1970's and I have no intention of keeping one again, even though I find them to be fascinating reptiles. (For what it is worth, it was an exanthematicus from a dealer in African herps. It lasted about 4 months with my substandard husbandry.) Still, I read this forum because I have learned a lot from it,some of which is applicable to the herp species I do now successfully keep and breed.

That being said, I ask you this question. What was your purpose in writing this obviously sarcastic diatribe? To me, it came off as condescending. You must be a pretty smart Guy.
