Snuggle up with this Nile :)

With all the talk about friendly Niles, I wanted to share these photos when "the whole gang" was piled up while we watched a movie.









"Larry" is an 11-yr-old Ornate Nile Monitor and the furry creatures are a 4-yr-old Jack Russel and a 1-yr-old Boston Terrier. They get along really well although I don't usually leave Larry alone with them just to be extra careful.

Cute picture...I wish my iguana liked to sit still and watch TV with, he'd rather be ontop of my head or the TV or all over the place.

Very cool Jesse. He's definitely an exception to the rule that Niles are nasty.

That's sweet. I've never seen a monitor that snuggled up with someone like that before.

Very cute Jessie!
Reminds me of my friends big savanna that she raised. She was a little woman and the lizard was almost as big as she was.
