for you? A photo of one.

Everything that everyone said about you getting a croc monitor applies to you getting a water monitor. Wait until you are older, more experienced and independant (ie not living at home). They get huge and require huge amounts of space and food.

I doubt you even realize just how strong a large monitor is.
My blackthroat is just over 4 feet and is more than a handful.
Imagine a 6 feet or bigger beast getting scared , feel threatened, or aggravated.
I won't allow anyone in the room when I open Fluffy's cage since the charging started. He feels more secure in his new cage and only threatens now, but the risk is still there.
When your sav is full grown, you will know a small fraction of what a large strength is like.
