Basically what el_toro said.

Everyone seems to have a different tempered mali. Some seem to tolerate being held and played with, some will always tail whip the crap out of you. Mine is pretty much in the middle. He will allow mild pettings in the cage but if try to pick him up he starts with the spiked tail lashings. The tail isn't too bad but does leave scratches and can break the skin. I've never heard of a mali biting but I'm sure it's happened. IMO As far as their care goes, they are a pretty easy lizard to take care of. They eat veggies so you don't have to deal with feeder bugs or mice which makes me happy. The most common problem I think people have is getting the temp high enough.
