{The Nile monitor (Varanus niloticus) is a large member of the monitor lizard family (Varanidae). | Nile monitors grow to about 6 to 7 feet in length. | They have muscular bodies, strong legs and powerful jaws. | The teeth are sharp and pointed in juvenile animals and become blunt and peg-like in adults. | They also possess sharp claws used for climbing, digging, defense, or tearing at their prey. | Like all monitors they have a forked tongue, with highly developed olfactory properties. | Their nostrils are placed high on the snout, indicating that these animals are highly aquatic, but are also excellent climbers and quick runners on land. | Nile monitors feed on fish, snails, frogs, eggs, birds, small mammals, large insects, and carrion. | In Southern Africa they are commonly referred to as leguaan, from the Dutch for iguana. | Nile monitors live throughout Africa except for desert regions. | They have also been introduced to Florida. | In June 2007, they were sighted in and near Sanibel, Florida. | Nile monitors require experienced care as pets and are not recommended for beginners; nevertheless they are often found in the pet trade. | Nile monitors need a very large cage, as they can reach lengths of over seven feet in adulthood. | Due to their large size, adults are likely to require custom built quarters. | Soil, sand, or bark chippings can be used as substrate. | The enclosure should contain things to make a suitable habitat such as rocks, driftwood, plastic plants or hollow logs. | A water dish large enough for the lizard to soak in should be used. | Nile monitors have a tendency to defecate in the water dish, so clean it whenever soiled or at least daily. | Nile monitors should have a daytime temperature gradient of about 80-90°F (27-32°C) and a night time temperature of about 78-80°F (26-27°C). | A basking spot of 140 F should be provided at least 12 hours a day. | A thermometer can be used to verify the temperature. | The humidity should be moderate. |This species is very hardy in captivity when properly maintained. | Wild caught animals should be checked for internal parasites. | The Nile monitor has a very aggressive temperament with a powerful bite and a lashing tail and therefore is very dangerous. | If raised with regular handling and a positive view of its keeper, a Nile monitor can to some extent be tamed. |There are few lizards less suited to life in captivity than the Nile monitor. | Buffrenil (1992) considered that, when fighting for its life, a Nile monitor was a more dangerous adversary than a crocodile of a similar size. | Their care presents particular problems on account of the lizards enormous size and lively dispositions. | Very few of the people who buy brightly-coloured baby Nile monitors can be aware that, within a couple of years, their purchase will have turned into an enormous, ferocious carnivore, quite capable of breaking the family cats neck with a single snap and swallowing it whole. |||||||||||||||||||}
