I think its a small lace monitor?? Every year in the summer months there is always a big lace monitor that wonders through out front lawn every few days. So this might be one of its kids? :) Sorry for the bad pics didn't have the DSLR at mums.

I would love to see pics of wild animals that people have caught on camera themselves all in the one spot, i will start as soon as i have some, so hopefully we can see some cool animals in their natural evironment and give people another reason to get outdoors!!! Cheers Mo :D

G'day everyone, I have shown my Lace Monitor with "Metabolic Bone Disease" on some other forums and I thought it was time I showed it to everyone here. I bought a Lace Monitor back in October 2010 (she was 7 months old then). She got a big burn on her back 2 days before I picked her up, but...
