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

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

1

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

2

During the dry season, it has been recorded diving underwater to feed on freshwater mussels.1

3

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

4

Several individuals may share one interconnected system of burrows, called a warren. One study found at least 6 individuals using the same warren.1

5

It is the third largest lizard in Australia, after the perentie and the lace monitor.1

6

Its sense of smell is its sharpest sense, and it flicks its forked tongue to search for food, much as snakes do.1
