Varanus Salvator has occupied an empty house by the river. The Three meter Varanid lives in the neighborhood!

South of India and Ceylon harbor two species of varanids, the Land monitor (Varanus bengalensis) and the Water monitor (Varanus salvator). With its total length of up to 3 meters, varanus salvator is the second largest monitor lizard in the world. Only the Komodo dragon (Varanus komodoensis) is bigger. However most water monitors are 1.5 meters long at most, whereby the tail is about half of the body-length.
