Hi everyone,
l just thought l would share a couple off photo's
showing what a medium or large monitor bite
can look like.
Yesterday one of my Females Sand Monitor's
decided that she wanted to try and eat my thum
on my right hand, and l promise you the bite
was paunfull, when l got her to let go.
This same lizard, bitt my left hand in 2003,
on the 23 August, then on the 5 off September
2 weeks later, l ended up with a infection in my
right arm, then on the 19 of September l was
admitted to hospital for 1 week, where they
had to do 2 operations on mt left hand, to get
rid of the infection, in my right arm.
So be carefull when it comes to handling
and feeding medium and large monitor's.
The same thing could happen to you as well.
