Phweee! That's some sharp teeth.
Is that from your rehab lacey? How is he?
The Moloch cast looks pretty good.If your desperate, "Bone Clones" (a U.S based company) has Komodo skull repros, but at a price.
I've just brought myself up to speed on this (can't believe I missed the previous two threads).
Nice big old lacie you have there, IV I hope he eventually returns to his former glory!
Another good reason for not messing with the pointy end of a Lacie!
You should have posted that here. I laughed when I read saximus' post about reading the comments of some keepers about lace monitor bites but thinking they were overplaying it. I suspect I was one of those keepers and I'm not overplaying it when I say that I still think you got off lucky, as there doesn't seem to be any permanent damage (and it was also a small lace monitor).See post aust day kiss
Spot on about getting off lucky. It's very hard to explain to people the dangers associated with monitors. Pics can usually help, or a head X-ray. But, sometimes, hands OFF experience is the only way. On a side note Crocdoc, have you ever had a serious bit from the lacies. Just a curiousity question.You should have posted that here.

I grabbed a 4 foot perentie when I was 14. I'd caught heaps of goannas and ven snakes so no worries.
Right hand around the base of the tail, left coming under holding the neck.
He shredded my left arm, took a lot of stiches to fix, but he never bit me! Thank ****
First and last perentie capture
Not just the pointy end
