Great info. If I could lend a bit of constructive criticism; incubation of most all large monitors is over 6 months. Water monitors and Croc monitors eggs will incubate for about 185-210 days at 86 degrees F. Trust me, I wish they only incubated for a month. After copulation the females will generally lay eggs between one month and 7 weeks later. There is very little info on their breeding so I assume this info is hard to find if you're not directly involved in Salvadorii projects. Love the video. Very cool. Thanks for taking the time. -Cory
Hey, Cory! Thanks so much for the feedback. Yes, you're right; sometimes finding the information can be really difficult and it's not always sourced properly. I really appreciate you taking the time to explain all of that in more detail! =)
Quite a few lizard families have formed tongues, such as the helodermids and the lizards belonging to the family teiidae. And crocodile monitors almost never reach 90kg, usually averaging around 5kg
I have a question for the maker of this video(Animal Fact Files). Here is the question: Who do you think would win a fight to the death between a fully grown Crocodile monitor lizard and a Siberian lynx? I await your reply.
9 months later but the lynx is likely going to die and be eaten. A very large lynx may indeed outweigh a large crocodile monitor, but the teeth on the monitor are substantial (this video doesn't show it, but they're significantly larger than even Komodo dragon teeth). While the teeth of the monitor are not curved or serrated, they are still bladed and very sharp. This animal is considered in the reptile trade as being potentially life threatening, and of the few who do keep them, several have permanent injuries from defensive bites - a predatory bite, which is highly possible versus an equivalently sized cat, would be quite devastating. In the wild they have been reported to actively hunt pigs and deer!
@@donraeside Thanks for sharing this information. However, my question for you is this: Do you have any hard evidence as proof that Crocodile monitor lizards actually hunt pigs and dear?If yes, please feel free to share. I await your reply.
@@craigbrown6437 It is mentioned in this book by professional herpetologist Eric Pianka. Still, very little is known about their natural diet as they are poorly studied - given their arboreal nature they likely do prey mostly on birds and reptiles and tree dwelling mammals, likely including monkeys.
@@donraeside Who do you think would win a head to head fight to the death between a Siberian lynx and a fully grown Crocodile monitor lizard? I await your reply.
We indigenous people we don't think of crocodile monitors that way .We respect those animals because we know how dangerous those animals can. They are pack animals you take one out you will be chased by the rest.
We were basing that off of the information on this website: animaldiversity.org/accounts/Varanus_salvadorii/ However, there are other sources indicating up to six months for incubation... hmm. Thanks for pointing this out! =)
Good point. 200lbs is their maximum according to sources like here: animaldiversity.org/accounts/Varanus_salvadorii/ but it could have been more clear that is the maximum weight. Thanks for bringing this to our attention. Hope you have a pleasant day

To be completely honest, considering they wouldn't come into contact with one another naturally, I don't really feel like it's a match that would ever occur unless incited by humans in some way.
@@AnimalFactFiles If in fact as you said it was match incited by humans and these two animals were put in a position in which they both were forced to fight to the death who do you think would win(a fully grown Crocodile monitor lizard or a Siberian lynx)? Please give reasons for your answer.Again, I await your reply.
@@AnimalFactFiles I understand what you are saying. I also agree with you. However, which animal would win the fight in the end(the Crocodile monitor lizard or the Siberian lynx)?I still need answer to this question. Again i await your reply.

They even LOOK like dinosaurs.
I'm trying to come up with a good joke but I'm tired so all I wanna say is that Monitor Lizards are best lizard bois.
Good video :)
Haha! They're loooong bois, too. ;)
Kamp Keenan brought me here 🤔
Lagertha?
Amazing episode as usual!
Thanks so much, Paul!
I never knew about this awesome animal until now! Thank you guys sooo much for the information again!😀

Lookit the size on that one!
Eli-sive

amazing video
Aww! We really appreciate it!!

200 lb !!!! That’s not true they don’t get bigger than about 50 lb
Why the split second image of weeping Virgin Mary at the beginning?
Probably something to do with editing in RUclips editor awhile back
@@AnimalFactFiles Huh. Still confusing, but at least I know now it's thanks to site jank.
I think there is a mistake at the wight they don't get anywhere near 90kg its like 15-20 max

Amazing animal WOW
Obviously everybody's going to say yes to your question because you just told just told them so don't believe anybody but seriously I knew
Tegus and their family also have split toungs, but still cool video
"Evil tree Spirits that Breath fire!" No. They're just neat, pretty scaly monkey's.
Go pack your dragon fears back to the middle ages!
More like close Relatives of the Komodo Dragons and monitor lizards.
They're one of New Guinea's apex predators and also hunt deer and New Guinea wild boar. I wish they weren't pets all.
Oh... A jungle crawler.
Looks like dewbacks from star wars

Carrion eater. Why they survived. Lots of dead dinosaurs.
longest in my book = largest!
Pet trade? What. The flock?
Just let a couple of these go in Florida, their population will be just fine
Incubation is 1 month? 🤔🤔🤔
We were basing that off of the information on this website: animaldiversity.org/accounts/Varanus_salvadorii/
However, there are other sources indicating up to six months for incubation... hmm. Thanks for pointing this out! =)
200lbs?? I don’t think so! Maaaybe 40lbs
