怎样认出它

  • 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

常被误认为： The sand goanna (Varanus gouldii) somewhat resembles the yellow-spotted monitor.1

它对人有多危险？

对人的危险: 很疼可能真的很疼，但几乎从不严重。

它害怕时会做什么？

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

如果它咬人

  • 清洗伤口，让人保持冷静并就医。

一定先拨打你的急救电话（112、000、911）。这里是一般急救指导，不是医疗建议。 急救基础

注意安全

  • 永远不要摸、抓或逗弄野生动物，即使是很小的，即使它看起来在睡觉或已经死了。
  • 给它留出空间。如果遇到它，保持冷静，慢慢后退，让它走自己的路。
  • 如果被它咬了：保持冷静，保持不动，拨打你的急救电话（112、000、911）或尽快去医院。记住它长什么样，拍张照片会有帮助。

它不是冲着你来的。它用毒液捕猎或保护自己，而且它更愿意躲起来。 更多安全知识

事实

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
