Ha ha I bet your spectacled who’d score a perfect 10 on your evil scale, but the monitor is not a problem, fearless males are king of there territory they are protecting it viciously, what you need to do is get him out of there a little try using food or a water pool, something that he will associate with you as provider, you know a positive experience out of his domain. Water monitors adjust pretty fast to captivity, they will do what you want for food, long tweezers and a hook or a shield to protect you and this guy will follow you around, just make sure his not to hungry as to go ballistic on you, and everything shod be smooth.
We have big and dangerous pythons, now pleas peoples read this carefully before judging, glove are totally useless for these dangerous snakes, when we must handle them this is how I do it, I cover its head with a catchers mitt, with my other hand I grasp the neck I use all my 260lbs to hold it down while my partner immediately puts a thick condom over its head, as I release part of his nose from the mitt he puts the condom on then rapidly duck tape over it, we then cut an air hole and voila the snake is safe to handle, this may sound simplistic but as you know doing it is the hard part. We do this only the 2 of us but 2 extra guys are near by, but honestly I don’t think 4 is a crowd, I just hope to never miss this operation.
As for the caiman just lasso it and pin him down with a broom to close its jaws, then jump him and have someone secure his jaws. They are strong but not to overpower you, not at this size.
Kind regards
