There are seventy-nine different species of monitor lizard on the planet, ranging in size from just about 8 inches, to over 10 feet in length. The largest and most famous monitor is the Komodo dragon. In the areas of Thailand that I visited, water monitors were fairly common. Tree monitors, however, were not and I was lucky to get a great look at this guy in the Khlong Seang Wildlife Sanctuary. He was big — not quite Komodo big — but maybe five feet from head to tail.

I know this is kind of a weird perspective but it looks like he has a G between his feet on his back so does that make him a Gucci tree monitor LOL walking the branch Runway

great observation, Karen. It so looks like branding, specially because it is so uniform.
Thanks for noticing too so from now on he’ll be the little Gucci tree monitor
