How many bad bites so far?

the monitors on my wanted list include but are not limited to (:P ): varanus prasinus, varanus storri, varanus caudolineatus, varanus eremius, varanus macreai(sp?), varanus panoptes horni, varanus giganteous, varanus mertensi, and varanus griseus. im probably forgetting something though.

croc monitors dont really do anything for me. they are a beautiful monitor that definitely warrants respect though.

Ackie and a Tegu! (not a monitor I know)


I got a nasty bite today - he flew right at my arm and held on (darned parrots :( ) I now got two distinct beak indents and bruising from both upper and lower mandibles. I trust my sav more than my parrot.

I guess I've been gypped by my snakes - no bites yet - not even a hiss from Inga!

Corn Bread,


How old and or big is your Savannah? I keep the same and also do not want to get bit from them.

I picked the 1-3 bites, my 8ft RTB took a chunk out of my hand once. Long long story if I find the thread I will post it. Mistaken identity I presume. LOL
No stitches or anything, just a lot of triple antibiotic and bandages.

Stay safe everyone and don't get chomped on.:fishslap:

Hes a little over 2'. The bite is just pure pain. You try and move and they tighten up and squirm causing more pain. Basically its either sit and wait for them to release or take the pain and run for the vinegar or the liquor cabinent

Never changing water bowls again without SCRUBBING my hands first. I'll get pics when I get a new USB cable. Stupid mistake. Bite marks go from my pointer finger all the way to my pinky finger, imagine if she was much bigger than 5'!!

Never been bit but I have been struck at, I know it's coming someday!

It seems like whenever I feed my little boy and don't feed Ruby, she strikes at me. I guess that doesn't happen all the time, I usually bring a small meal along just incase

The most serious bite i ever got was from...a rosy boa:P!! It left a small bruise and a bite that looked like a tiny shark bite on my pinky finger for about three days. It was totally my fault too. I've been nipped about

It left a small bruise and a bite that looked like a tiny shark bite on my pinky finger for about three days. It was totally my fault too. I've been nipped about a dozen times, but i don't count those. Funny, how with me, it's always the small snakes that are itchin' to bite me, never the big ones.

we talking snake bites or any animal bites in genral. Too many to count the whole reason I don't play with anything posinous. Seems all the animals in the house are in the bite mike club. Can a gecko bite?
