Explorers:
Shoppers got more than they bargained for when a six-foot monitor lizard raided a supermarket and clambered over shelves in search of food.

The giant reptile sparked panic after it emerged from a nearby canal and ran into the 7-Eleven store in Nakhon Pathom, Thailand.

Staff and customers hid behind the counter as the beast rampaged through the store and tossed food and drink cartons to the ground.

A shop assistant said the lizard was in the store for an hour before police and reptile handlers arrived.

LollySeaSide:

They are not just your close friends.
They are your gods.
The Orogun people worship monitor lizards and dogs.
You probably don't know that history and you are probably not proud of the gods your people worship?

BuddhaPalm:


More specifically, that's a Komodo dragon.

They are only found in Indonesia.

Vickyvice:
that's my village, orogun. I aslo went to enugu ukwu, for a visit, Its after nkpor, I saw pythons living freely among humans. One thing I understand is that in a place where it's forbidden to harm any animal, it mixes freely with humans, and sees them as close friends, and not threats

Kirkman:

Are you for real man? but in the write up; someone quoted "Customer Narumpa Tangsin, who filmed the creature, said: 'They're dangerous animals, especially when they're angry" have you experienced this before and do you care to explain?

Vickyvice:
I was referring to my village. They don't attack humans since it forbidden to harm them. If you brandish yam in their presence they will come and take it from your hand

TheSTreetman:
We don't have larger reptiles here in Nigeria because they don't allow it to grow pass 1ft.

LollySeaSide:

That's why I said you probably don't know that part of your history.
