I bet that animal is not to large, it's just the angle of which the photograph was taken and how the animal is being held. I'd guess that animal to be 5-5.5 feet which is still good size.



That is Jody Piper with a large animal.



There am I with a large male as well.

The reason you don't see to many large animals like these is simply the fact most keepers can't provide them with the proper condions to live in, and either there fore don't live long enough to see this size, or are I guess you could say have a stunted growth from lack of food/space.

There is my female, not quite as big, but still a good size lizard, and still growing!
