👋🏻 Hi, my name is Hughy and I’m a Mertens Water Monitor.

My nostrils are positioned dorsally so I can breathe while swimming on the water’s surface. I also have a special nostril valve that shuts tightly when I dive under water, allowing me to stay underwater for several minutes 👃🏻

I also have a laterally compressed tail, which acts like a rudder when I’m swimming 🦎

I have a long forked tongue and an acute sense of smell to locate fish, frogs, invertebrates, carrion, and even crocodile and turtle eggs 🐟

I love climbing on rocks or trees or basking on branches overhanging water 🪨

Come visit me and my friends at Snakes Downunder this school holidays!
