This is my Savannah Monitor, Andre. In mid February, he took a fall from the top of his cage that broke his neck and killed him. I never thought his cage was dangerous in any way, and don't know how this happened, but my mother found him flipped upside down on the bottom of his cage with his neck all out-of-whack. He was around 5 years old and 4 feet long. Andre was one of my best pets... and one of the tamest monitors I have ever come into contact with. He will always be in my heart.
