Crocodile Monitor

A Crocodile Monitor, from Australia. It's not a crocodile, but it is a monitor. I guess they're just a little mixed up down there in Australia. Scale is hard to tell in the picture, but he was probably around six feet from tip to tail. Of course, it's a damn long tail.

 

Also, that's a real tree behind it. The bark peels off naturally and reveals stripes of several different colors. It looks really, really neat. Must be the dazzling colors that confused the Aussies about crocodiles.
