Yellow-spotted monitor
The yellow-spotted monitor is a large, fast lizard that lives in northern and western Australia and southern New Guinea. It is one of Australia's biggest lizards, and it plays an important part in its ecosystem as a predator. It can give a painful bite if it feels threatened.1

Nola ezagutu
- Most individuals are yellow, with a brown or dark tan background.1
- Large, dark spots form rows along the back, and they are most distinct in the middle of the back.1
- Bands of colour appear toward the tip of the tail.1
- Adults are large: females average about 90 cm long and males about 120 to 150 cm.1
- Colour varies between individuals and places. The subspecies rubidus is reddish rather than brown.1
Askotan honekin nahasten da: The sand goanna (Varanus gouldii) somewhat resembles the yellow-spotted monitor.1

When threatened, it raises itself up on its hind legs and supports itself with its tail, which lets it watch for danger. It can also run up to 100 metres to a tree or burrow.1
Kosk egiten badu
- Garbitu zauria, eutsi pertsona lasai eta lortu mediku-laguntza.
Deitu beti lehenik zure larrialdi-zenbakira (112, 000, 911). Lehen sorospenei buruzko orientabide orokorra da hau, ez mediku-aholkua. Lehen sorospenen oinarriak
Egon seguru
- Ez ukitu, ez harrapatu eta ez zirikatu inoiz animalia basati bat, txikia izan arren, eta lo edo hilda dagoela badirudi ere.
- Utzi tartea. Bat aurkitzen baduzu, egon lasai, egin atzera poliki eta utzi bere bidetik joaten.
- Batek kosk egiten badizu: egon lasai, egon geldi, deitu zure larrialdi-zenbakira (112, 000, 911) edo joan ospitalera azkar. Gogoratu nolakoa zen, argazki batek laguntzen du.
Ez dabil zure atzetik. Pozoia janaria harrapatzeko edo bere burua babesteko erabiltzen du, eta askoz nahiago du ezkutatu. Seguru egoteari buruz gehiago

Datuak
The yellow-spotted monitor digs some of the deepest burrows known for any vertebrate, with an average depth of 2.6 m as of 2015.1
During the dry season, it has been recorded diving underwater to feed on freshwater mussels.1
Argus monitors can mature sexually in less than a year, which is much faster than most other large monitors, which usually take 2 or more years.1
Several individuals may share one interconnected system of burrows, called a warren. One study found at least 6 individuals using the same warren.1
It is the third largest lizard in Australia, after the perentie and the lace monitor.1
Its sense of smell is its sharpest sense, and it flicks its forked tongue to search for food, much as snakes do.1
