Re: A few photographs of my critters - part 1

I thought I was pretty good at identifying monitors, but I'm having a hard time with that one. What is it?

I'll give you a hint.

Hint 1: Its closest living relative is the lace monitor.

This thread made my day. Just the random photos of monitor sex all over the house... they're like a couple of newlyweds!

Getting warm! There's only one species which is more closely related to lace monitors than V. salvadorii.

Hint 2: The animal in the photo isn't full grown.

I've got to step out for an hour or so, so everyone keep guessing and I'll provide the answer on my return.
