Always looking forward to what kind of critter or furry friend you are going to feature. You got close to this one.

Cool shot!

Varanus salvator occurs in Sri Lanka as well as many other countries in the oriental region, thanks to its ability to colonise new lands, risking sea journeys.

I think it is unfair to be called Malayan Water Monitor!

Are you trying to hijack our Water Monitor?
