Those things eat chickens and other small animals in poultry, even eggs. They're a real danger to small livestock.

Do you kill and burn every wildlife you come across?

If you were going about your normal every day life and all of a sudden from the clouds, a giant foot stumps on you and then burns you for no other reason other than because they can, how would you feel?..oh wait, you won't feel any sort of way cos you would be deceased but you get the point!

So you couldn't stop the person from picking it to eat?
When the person dies of convulsion, how will you feel?
You are worse than Ebola that inflicted poverty on 99.9% of Nigerians

Not only from the waterline area could you find this reptile. You don't have that monopoly, do you? undecided
Re: Monitor Lizard: See What I Killed. by omotayocaleb(m): 1:16pm On Oct 02, 2025
It's edible. It's a monitor lizard, but I won't be surprised if it's protected in some countries.

They're reptiles and they can stay in water undetected for a long time. Those things will silently consume your fish, you wouldn't even know till they're so fat that they start showing inside the fish pond.

Go and check well, your fish has probably started going missing. You won't know quickly cos they can enter and leave silently.

I caught one in my yard eyeing some chickens not too long ago but it escaped.

Other name is Awonriwon.... I decided to skip that earlier on but now that I see some people who can relate, then, why not.

Awonriwon is the real Yoruba name for the reptile 🦎
