in the wild or captivity,does one sex dominate the other ?

or is it the larger monitor,regardless of sex,that will take over and dominate the desired area ?

fascinating wee,soon to be big beasty's mate

Shaun, we are all witnessing a first here, I have never seen any video posted by anybody who hides a camera and allows two baby Savs to grow up on film, so I really don't have an answer yet.

for the moment, it appears that Cera is the confident one, and Littlefoot is trying his hardest to be accepted.

Minimal handling...

They don't like it, so I don't force it.

They are learning at their own pace.

Littlefoot will eat from tongs, and Cera knows the sound of me dumping food in the cage, so she will come out of hiding as I put worms in there.

It's progress..
