I love banks of monitors. But if they have leftover space they should increase font size rather than toss in ads.
Ahh, actually a full sized replica at the Monitor Museum. www.monitorcenter.org/ click on the middle image for a very good interactive history of Monitor. The museum is where fairly large chunks of the original now reside.
On our set. This was actually a fairly nice monitor (as lizards go). She was pretty tame and the handlers let people pet her.
Malayan Water Monitor, Varanus salvator. Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve, Singapore.
Quite a large individual seen basking on the edge of the pools near the visitor centre. Great to see such an impressive reptile.
Giant Water monitor (Varanus salvator) at Pulau Sapi Island. There were 4 or 5 of these monsters enjoying a mudpit. The largest of these were probably above 2,5 m. TARP, Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Borneo, July 2011

Once a young man wanted to marry a girl. The girl's father said: no, unless you get down that Monitor Lizard from that high tree. The boy was asking for a goat, a dog, ropes, hay and bones. After he tied out the goat to a tree and gave her the bones, and tied out the dog, and gave him the hay.
-Hey, it is wrong! – laughed the Monitor on the tree.
-Well, Lizard, show me, if you know better! – answered the lad.
The Monitor came down from the tree to give the bones for the dog and the hay for the goat. He was caught and eaten, and the boy married the girl.
