In zoo's now it is common practice to mentally stimulate intelligent captives like the primates by changing there habitat and offering there food in different ways and locations. As monitors are one of the most intelligent lizards i was wondering if anyone does anything to there monitors to keep them mentally active?

I make the effort of doing it on a regular basis, with both snakes and lizards.

The Ackies are by far the most inquisitive and seem to really enjoy a change round.

So yes I do.. but need to work on it.
