l have a copy of this new Monitor book.

So if you are really keen on keeping Monitor's, and want to learn more about different specie's, and their diets-health-housing-handling-sexing-breeding, and which specie's are easy to keep in captivity, l would strongly recommend you get yourself a copy of this Book.

l would say its as good as Daniel Bennett Natural History Monitor Book, and Matt Vincent and Steve Wilson Australian Goannas Book.

Should be an interesting read, he is one of the authorities on monitors in the world, he has probably bred more monitors than anyone else in the world.

I have not received my copy yet but will get it early next week. After that time I am happy to tell you exactly what I think of it. However there are very few good monitor books around so I am sure I will find it very valuable.

[richardsc]

kratos theres daniel bennets one but its out of print and i cant get a copy,been lucky enough to lend one off a friend though,an aussie one from matt vincent and steve wilson,a good read as well and this new one which is actually an english translated one but a worthy addition,they would be the best 3 concerning husbandry i guess,theres also the big monitor lizards of the world one,more natural history i guess but id imagine it would be a great book,the husbandry topics arent super super detailed in any of the books though,but still lots of great tips
