Savannah monitors in the wild

[@albertogn2004]

Excellent video and very interesting, thank you for sharing!

My first ever monitor was a Savannah. Thankfully I had access to good information about husbandry so he lived 15 years in good health. They're still my favorite monitor lizard species to this day.

Thank you so much for sharing this! It is amazing to see them in the wild and to see what you find about them there. There is such a lack of actual information on these monitors in their natural habitat and so many are misguided by people in the pet trade. I love these monitors very much and hope that they can be better understood so that their captive lives can be improved a lot. Amazing work!

Loved this! Was so interesting to see their burrows and their habitat. Thanks so Much Linnea for making this, hope this opens up peoples eyes of how horrible the pet trade is towards these beautiful animals.

Just wanna say thank you for taking the time to make this video !! Savannah is my favorite species of monitor. Hey quick question real quick tho at around 1:55 who’s Savannah is that ? And why is it limping? I notice my newly bought Savannah has a slight limp or or something and I’m concerned. What could this be ? I would be happy to show you vids via email

Hi, I'm happy you like the video! The limping one is mine. I came home one day and found it like that. Took it to the vet, got x-rays done, the vet re-aligned the part where the bone had been broken and stabilized it against the torso. I kept the lizard dry and fed it extra calcium for 7 weeks, and when I took the stabilizing tape/gauze off, it was as if the bone had never been broken in the first place :) Now it's impossible to tell which leg it even was when looking at the lizard. I have a video about it all here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eqe2ap5pn7N1ZpY Hard to say what might cause the limp in yours without seeing it, could be a multitude of things. Feel free to e-mail me

Thank you so so much for putting this up for others to see! I have not seen a recent video of someone going and doing a wild study on bosc monitors and this was beautiful. I would love to know if you have any papers out on them or more videos?

[@VargenSaphia]

I am currently writing a paper on how I breed my captive boscs, but I haven't finished it yet. I am also making a new video from when I visited their wild habitat a few weeks ago, which also isn't finished.
