Re: "Best trained Savannah monitor"
The sav I brought to glitch would sit in most people's arms and be fine with it, but the second something got his attention he'd be running off. At least a dozen times he was being held by people, saw a frog or something and practically ran off their shoulders after the thing.
He was "calm" and slow, but the second anything interested him he exploded after it.

Sometime monitors arnt always active and will stay still for a short period of time .... Aslong as they are warm and feel safe they may just lay in people .... My old sac used to sit in my lap for a few minutes but then wud lose interest a wander off ...
All depends on the stimulus and animal in question

He was great with people, but that took time. When we got him he was frozen, and still wanted to bite us and get away.

Re: "Best trained Savannah monitor"
I noticed that he uses Mark Bayless as a reference, Hmmmm... Interesting that he choses to give a reference that can't be verified, since Mark passed away some years ago...

Re: "Best trained Savannah monitor"
What reference of Marks did he use? I must have missed it; I stopped watching after awhile as the animals are so obviously in horrible condition. (and that constant repetitive name calling is torture to listen to)
