Goanna Thing

[Sdaji]

My friend showed me this baby goanna thingy. Apparently they grow pretty big.

Here's a picture of me patting it, my hand gives a size comparison.

[Helikaon]

[bundy_zigg]

great pics, what a gorgeous little fella. Thanks for sharing the pics with us!!

 

[Sdaji]

which of the cryptic species complex indicus is it?

None of them.

waruikazi: I'm sure they said it was a monitor and not a dragon. Well, actually, they didn't tell me anything, I just walked around to the back of the cage and opened it up so I could play with the little thing

I thought komodo dragons ARE monitors, regardless of their name I saw on a documentary that they are monitors.

 

[notechistiger]

Komodo dragons are moniters. Ah, the snake-geneticist becomes aquainted with lizards.

 

[Sdaji]

Oh! I see! Thanks! After all these years of working with reptiles and intense study I was still too stupid to realise that! Thanks for teaching me. Maybe one day I'll return the favour by teaching you to recognise jokes.

(I'm supposed to put emoticons in now so that people will realise I'm laughing and not serious, right? *sigh* It makes things so much less fun...)

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Just taking a shot in the dark here, but I think people who are lucky enough to play with baby Komodo Monitors have heard the term 'Komodo Dragon' before.

And it's Monitors, not moniters. If you're going to try to correct someone, at least put a little effort into your spelling.

*sigh* Does NO ONE understand a joke of my own?

I suggest you look up the definition of a joke.

Cute attempt, but it's not working :lol:
