[Wanted] Perentie Goanna (Varanus Giganteus)

Hey everyone my name is Eddy. I have many species of reptiles and monitor lizards, the one animal i've fallen in love with ever since i was a child though was Perentie Goanna's. I've checked online all over to see if anyone breeds them in the United States or if anyone know's people who sell them? Hope to hear some positive responses back. Take care guys and girls.

Oh and if anyone wants to email me its [email]DiscoveryReptiles@yahoo.com

Slim to no way on this Australian species hitting the pet trade. Its Australian so it isn't legally exported. Also, its rarely bred outside of Australia so not much chance of surplus getting into private hands.

Yeah thats why i kind of thought, i contacted a big reptile breeder out of Australia but they haven't responded to me. I guess i thought with other Australian animals like blue tongue skinks, carpet pythons, lace monitors hell even scrub pythons on the market in the U.S that maybe Perentie goanna's might sneak they're way into the U.S as well. Well if anyone hears anything let me know =)

So anyone have any news or info on Perentie's? Please only helpful replies.

You won't hear to much if anything at all simply because the trade lines from Australia have been closed for .............. 10 years maybe. No import, no export. And it's more then a federal offense if you're caught. The only way is for a zoo to get them if at all. You can check the zoos around the nation and see but I do not believe there are Perentie stateside.

Ok thank you, i mean it completely sucks haha but thank you though. I just think it would be completely awesome to have one, i mean owning water monitors and whatnot are cool animals but for what ever reason Perentie's just really impress me and really catch my attention. Thanks though Christine
