Wild monitor lizard

Malayan water monitor methinks. It's weird rounding a corner and seeing that on the path!

      Yup, its a Malayan Water Monitor (Varanus salvator). They've become pests at the zoo, sometimes preying on waterfowl.

      The other wild species in Singapore is the smaller and rather shy Clouded Monitor (Varanus nebulosa).
