Monitor Lizard Visitor

A nightmare encounter for some might just be another day for others. A man in Thailand has grown so accustomed to seeing a monitor lizard the size of a grown man around his home that he named the beast Selena. Attanai Thaiyuanwong believes that humans have invaded animal homes, not the other way around, so he feels only compassion for the giant lizard coming to visit. It’s unclear why the reptile is trying to break into his home, though one theory is that it is after his pet dog. Monitor lizards this size have been known to eat small mammals, like cats, so it wouldn’t be the craziest theory. Even though Attanai doesn’t mind the leviathan hanging around, these lizards can inflict some nasty bites and scratches when threatened. When it comes to these monitor lizards, if you invade their space, they will invade yours.
