Who is Loki? You're pet?

Wow! Pretty poisonous?

Yes, they can put down a water buffalo! They're extremely dangerous! It's the largest of the monitor lizards in the world.

And yet he looks quite docile and almost cute - a bit like a hippo about the face - and just as dangerous!!

Looks can be deceiving. I don't think this one is as dangerous and ones in the wild. It's at the San Diego Zoo, so I'm sure it gets a lot of people inter-active.
I read years ago, that more people die in Africa by Hippos, than any other animal (not sure if it's still true, though).

I believe its still true

Yes, it's still true...they don't like fishermen crossing their 'patch'...but they let it go a few times before they lose it - and bite the problem in half!
Mushybannana - you still have to explain 'Loki' !! lol!

Thanks, Palmate!
I may have read the information at the San Diego Zoo's Hippo exhibit.
