Since I gave her a new hollow cork branch to play in I don't often see any more of her than that!
The small kinks in her tail are quite evident here, but on the whole she is doing way better now, her claws are re-growing and she doesn't look as "underdone" as [MENTION=38465]pinefamily[/MENTION] put it. Still some way to go though.

I believe Croc cove in Darwin have them they are from Groote eylandt. Your best bet would be to google Varanus acanthurus insulanicus as it will come up with pictures.

the monitor you want is a V panoptes I only have caged pictures handy. Try going onto flicker or one of the monitor fb pages and see what you can find and ask the author I am sure they will let you :)

Your photography is on point sir! ????????????
 
The second night my largest tristis decided to sleep on the stack instead of its hide. It's kind of freaking me out to be honest.

I wouldn't worry, a few of mine regularly just fall asleep where ever they were when the lights switched off. They never used to, so I guess they're just becoming more comfortable with their surroundings. My female tristis especially can fall asleep in the funniest of places.

I can't get over how beautiful your one is though, so insanely jealous.
 
I just absolutely love your tristis.

Have you noticed it has started to brumate at all?

None of my tristis are under full brumation as of yet, although there is a reduction in activity and feeding. They will emerge and bask for a couple of hours. The smallest is the most active and he appears to still have a decent appetite.

That's good to hear. It was a new behaviour so I was a bit concerned.

I think the Perth (South West) tristis are pretty cool. I waited a while for some even though there were plenty of other localities available.

Thanks Vamps:)! Although they loose the baby camoflague at about 8 months, they are also nice as adults, really subtle pastel yellows remain and some orange flecks.
