Not true at all.
They have rows of fine teeth.
I have been bitten enough times 
Since their primary food in the wild consists of tadpoles, frogs, worms and fish, They need theese teeth to hold on to the slippery food they crave so much.

Re: Took some pictures (including Chomper) + Vids
So I was feeding the garter snakes tonight when who should come over and steal their chopped up trout....
He just slammed a whole pound of shrimp, so now he wants a nap, under the red cart.

Re: Took some pictures (including Chomper) + Vids
Man I want a sav.
How hard is it to take really good care of one?
And how much does it cost?
I would totally have one but I dunno if I have the responsibility 
Or the cash for that matter

short answer....
difficult, expensive and no offense, but done right, a 30 year commitment.
You have your whole life ahead of you, when you own a house and can accomidate a cage thats 8 feet wide (absolute minimum) then start considering it.

Re: Took some pictures (including Chomper) + Vids
I have to say Eli If you wait until you own a house and have some extra cash flow I think you would make a GREAT owner of one. I hope that someday that you can get one! No need to rush it though you are young and you never know where life will take you.

Sadly my friend, so many people jump right in without knowing what they are facing, and the monitor suffers for it. Most of them are dead by year one.
They are tiny as babies, It guts me when I see them in pet stores for $30
Chomper ingested a pound of shrimp today and that plate of trout, he will want more food tomorrow.
