Jeremy introduces us to his pet lizard, a large male Asian water monitor named Sungei. He talks about what it's like to keep them in captivity and how to care for them including their specialised and varied diet. Keeping monitor liz-ards as pets can be challenging but very rewarding as they are intelligent animals. Large lizards like Komodo drag-ons, crocodile monitors and Asian water monitors can be dangerous if not properly trained.
