Clouded Monitor (Varanus nebulosus)
Island Club Road, 14th March 2017
This very young Clouded Monitor was seen near the entrance of Island Club Road. It had most likely been run over by a passing vehicle.
Whether the Clouded Monitor is a subspecies of the Bengal Monitor (Varanus bengalensis) or a distinct species is still a matter of some debate; some sources still lump the two of them together.
