Height of Enclosure for Savs
I was wondering, if Savannah Monitors are given a decent amount of climbing space do you think they would use it?
I was thinking about this because I've seen many pictures of Littlefoot or Cera on the Tree that is in their enclosure. If I were to build another one eventually I was thinking of adding 2 feet or so of height to the enclosure, I would add more dirt but it would still have about 3 and a half to 4 feet of air space which could be used.
I am not sure what would be put in the air space maybe a shelf for them to sit up on and more basking spots or a network of thick branches connected to the walls of the enclosure.
Maybe even a rocky mountain kind of thing starting below the dirt (so it can't be burrowed under) leading up towards a higher point in the enclosure. Maybe if done right there would be a small cave in the rocks.
With the height I wouldn't change the width or length it would just be an addition to the height.
So something like 8x4x6 or 12x6x6 kind of thing.
tl;dr Would a Sav use vertical space? and your experiences with seeing them use vertical space.
