Great display of how Monitor Lizards use their tail as a defensive weapon. A hard whip from an Argus Monitor, Lace Monitor or Perentie can leave serious welts and even break the skin.. trust me. 🦎💥 Merten’s Water Monitor Northern Territory Australia | Wildman Adventures

It’s hard to believe the Perentie exists: a lizard so large and so fast, it’s been known to hunt wombats and lone dingos. In this remarkable clip, a perentie shows there’s no limit to its hunting ambition, as it pursues a kangaroo. A new episode of Deadly Australians premieres tomorrow at 8/7c! | Smithsonian Channel

Releasing a beautiful Perentie (Varanus giganteus) that myself and @_ccaitie rescued on site whilst working in the Pilbara region of Western Australia. Keeping these big monitor lizards calm with the rescue and release is super critical for the well being of the animal after the fact, stressing a Perentie can lead to all sorts of health complications so a calm Perentie is a safe and happy Perentie! 💚🦎 #perentie #goanna #australia #fauna #wildlife #wildlifeconservation #positiveinteractions #re

teachyoufact on Instagram: "The video depicts a man narrowly escaping a charging perentie monitor lizard (Varanus giganteus), Australia's largest lizard species, on a remote outback dirt road, not a Komodo dragon as mislabeled in the post. Filmed from inside the moving van, the 15-second clip captures the lizard's rapid pursuit and lunge at the open rear door, showcasing perenties' top speed of up to 6 km/h and opportunistic hunting behavior.
