Snowbiz247.com Promo: Monitor Lizards Battle Each Other Over a Fish at Lumphini Park, Bangkok Thailand. Videographer: Nicholas Snow. From Wikipedia: "Monitor lizards or biawak are members of the family Varanidae, a group of carnivorous lizards which includes the heaviest living lizard, the Komodo dragon, with the crocodile monitor being the longest in the world. Varanidae is monotypic, containing only the genus Varanus. Their closest living relatives are the anguid and helodermatid lizards. Monitor lizards are generally large reptiles, although some can be as small as 12 centimetres in length. They have long necks, powerful tails and claws, and well-developed limbs. Most species are terrestrial, but arboreal and semi-aquatic monitors are also known. Almost all monitor lizards are carnivorous, although Varanus prasinus and Varanus olivaceus are also known to eat fruit. They are oviparous, laying from 7 to 37 eggs, which they often cover with soil or protect in a hollow tree stump.

thats mad dont these things attack ppl . where is this lumphini park place

[Snowbiz247]

@6Gizmo101 It is a large park in the center of Bangkok. What Central Park is to New York City, Lumphini Park is to Bangkok. I understand that monitor lizards in the park eat the fish in the lake.

[jennitahini]

Is this at Lumphini Park?

[Snowbiz247]

@jennitahini yes....this is at Lumphini Park.

[notthelastword]

Are these lizards outside of any enclosure!!??

[Snowbiz247]

@notthelastword They are not in an enclosure... There are estimated to be hundreds of monitor lizards living in Lumphini Park. If you watch the entire video, I do a 360 degree pan that will give you the perspective of the area, with no fences.

@jimtheadoremorrison Varanus Salvadorii and the komodo are both monitors this is a crocodile monitor which can exceed lengths of a komodo dragon but no where near the mass

[23dumerils]

@ShivaShambodas It's a Varanus Salvadorii, "Varanus" is the latin term for "Monitor" so yes it is a monitor.
