I like goannas. I am still trying to catch a wild one. Have come close a few times.

Saw a 2m perentie up in NSW a few years back. Scary big.

Don't get me wrong, I like goannas in their place - which is not the loungeroom. Perenties are amazing. Like being in Jurassic park, but for real.
Now you have giant lizards. What a place. Never a dull moment.
What, you didn't know we had giant lizards? Normally not aggressive, but keep moving. If you stand still they think you are a tree and run up your body. Many sutures required. Also, they eat carrion so their bites get badly infected really quickly. Nothing to fear: I regularly chase them out of the chicken pen in my pyjamas. But how a goanna got into my pyjamas I have no idea...
