The crocodile monitor (Varanus salvadorii) is reported to be the longest lizard in the world. Juveniles measure eight to 11 inches upon hatching. As adults, they can reach lengths of 13 feet. Round or oval shaped light yellow spots and flecks cover the body in transverse rows across the back. The head is long and flat and the lateral view displays a strongly vaulted muzzle. Monitors have long, pointed teeth and there are many flaps or folds of skin around the throat region. The tails is long and whip-like and is generally twice as long as the head and body.
