 A huge monitor lizard which was hit by a moving vehicle in Bangkok was rescued by a good spirited individual. The good sameritan who was driving along saw the injured reptile and stopped. He noticed that it is still breathing and placed triangles around it to save is from being hit further by passing vehicles. He then called a rescue team and the animal was taken to animal hospital. Because of the kindness of this stranger, the vet doctor who treated the animal gave some discount. The reptile responded to treatment and after few hours in the hospital, its rescuer paid the bill of 2000 baht which is about 20,000 naira. The big lizard was later released. Monitor lizards are common sights in Thailand. Most Thais don't eat it and Thais are known to be sympathethic to animals in general. Yesterday, we read in this forum how Nigerian soldiers caught a big monitor lizard in northern Nigeria and slaughtered it immediately for pepe-soup. I think it's high time Nigerian government enforces some laws on animal conservation as our planet is not only for humans.  Many Nigerian indigenous animals are being hunted to extinction. See photos of the rescued animal.
