walking with african white throated monitor lizard

[hack4100]

ok cool monitor, but really poor video. its a slideshow that lasts 30 secs & has no music. even poor elevator music is better than nothing at all

NOBODY LIKES SLIDESHOWS

that guy looks closer to a dinosaur than almost any other reptile i've seen. Monitors are strange lizards.

That would be cool if they ever found a live mosasaur out there in one of the oceans. (its an evolutionary link between monitor lizards and snakes)

How many ft is your monitor?

That is like the perfect size.

[jeffjohnson801]

i like to put my little nile in the bathtub with enough water for him to swim but not too deep, i put on basketball shorts or work pants and sit on the edge of the tub with my feet in the water, when he wants out, he knows that i am his ticket back to his cage, and i am the only thing to climb out onto so it builds trust. use luke warm water, some people dont use water, i think it calms him down, then again some people dont like this method at all, just be persistent and patient with taming

[narutofroever]

@jeffjohnson801 wow you must wait a long time in the tub since these monitors love the water lol cause i have one and am going to try your method and see if it works

[RespectReptilez]

plz reply. any tips on taming a 3 month old white throat monitor?

[ReptileUnicycler]

just handle him a couple times a week for 15-20 min intervals. and remember never come from above and grabs him or lift up his hide. use a scooping motion. end on a good note

[HotHunterRobert]

i personally dont own one but im pretty sure that if u handle it every day it should be fine but nothing can be TRULY TAMED but it can get pretty close i believe this goes with any reptile...i own a snake

[cosmicgate07]

You can start by grab it... put your hand on the substrate and get closet to him little by little.... if he hizzes don't back up your hand because that's a defeat sign for lizards and willl think they dominate so get close slowly but sure and handle him until it comes down in your hands... do that repeatly each day
