Jiminy Cricket's demise! - SV650.org

Well, this was the best that I could do - messing about with my camera's 'Continuous/Burst' mode... but even then the beggar shifts it a bit quick!

Meet 'Lunch'! Trust me, this isn't going to end well for him, or his friends - if you have an overwhelming love of dear ol' Jiminy Cricket, best look away now.

What do you mean, I've still got an antenne sticking out of my mouth?!

And people wonder what the fascination is owning reptiles.

A friend of mine used to feed his Carpet Python stunned gerbils - till one woke up, attacked the snake and took a few chunks out of his side! He then turned to breeding rats for them as they are less likely to fight back - it's a natural thing for a gerbil, they're distantly related to the Mongoose.

I guess he never read Rudyard Kipling's Jungle Book as a kid.

He's a Spiney Tailed Monitor, the smallest of the Monitor family.
I always thought Geckos look like they're grinning all the time, unlike Chameleon's, who constantly look grumpy.

S'called nature innit. Or the food chain.

The various bugs are bred specifically as a food supply, so get a nice life to adulthood, plenty of procreation and fed very, very well...

... that way they're nicely fat and nutritious for Egg!
