They feel very smooth & muscle-y. Monitors smell with their tongues & don't exactly like having them touched, but will tongue-flick your hands if you let them...just don't smell like anything they might remotely want to eat!!! Monitor bites - while infrequent with these guys - are particularly nasty due to all the bacteria in their saliva.

That guy reminds me of a dead milkman song that goes "big lizard in my back yard, can't afford to feed hime any longer". Can't remember any more of the song, but that's what jumped into my head when I saw your big boy.

COOL..
I've had a snake tongue on me very briefly by accident kinda - was neat, felt dry for that split second - a surprise for some reason!

Yep, snake tongues are relatively dry compared to other species. Many reptile tongues are used for prey acquisition (think of a chameleon's long-reaching tongue aim) or for smelling their surroundings (as previously discussed). Snake tongue-flicks are usually the slightest whisper across your skin. For the most part they really just want to check things out, and that's that.

My brother used to keep a few chameleons when we were kids...

We loved those things, they were little dwarf's (I grew up in Africa)And we found out the hard way they don't need a partner to reproduce

We also had plenty of snakes around.... (much to my mothers delight!)

We got evicted once because the caretaker of the apartment complex found out we had snakes
