Скачать или смотреть Nile Monitor Lizard - Africa's largest lizard

The Nile monitor lizard (Varanus niloticus) is the largest lizard in Africa, growing up to 2.1 metres long. Adult Nile monitor lizards can easily outrun people over short distances. They can also remain underwater for more than an hour. The female Nile monitor lays her clutch of eggs in the active mounds of termites. The heat from the termites acts to incubate the eggs. When they hatch, baby lizards resemble tiny versions of their parents. The mosasaur, a large, extinct sea monster that disappeared 65 million years ago, is closely related.
