The former tends to have more "off" days imo. The latter will be more socialable and seem to enjoy interaction. Once again, this is just my opino which is based on limited experience. Some people will argue that certain monitors are puppy-dog tame and that some tegus are evil. I'm sure there are examples of both. My monitors that I owned previously were never easy to handle and only tolerated it for short periods. My tegu can be out for hours and will continue to get more and more calm, the longer he stays out.

I'm not saying I will never own a monitor again but given the choice, I will take the tegu.
