This Nile monitor lizard was photographed in its natural habitat.
The Nile monitor lizard is a lizard from the monitor lizard family.
The monitor lizard is the largest of all lizards.
The female deposits her eggs in termite nests.
The monitor lizard is an active hunter that lives on eggs, carrion and prey.
I studied the monitor lizard from a distance and noticed that it used tongue in a peculiar way.
I definitely wanted to capture this in a photo.
The monitor lizard was also wary and did not lose sight of me for a second.
Which he was quite right to do.
The monitor lizard can grow up to 2.5 metres long and can bite and strike hard with its tail.
Running, it can keep up with a human.
I think it is a beautiful animal, it knows what it stands for and radiates a certain power from a distance without doing any harm.
He lets you know that you have to be careful.
