A three-feet-long monitor lizard or "bayawak" was captured by a resident in Barangay Dalig, Antipolo City.Jun-Andeng Ynares and CVO FB Page / MANILA BULLETIN
The resident surrendered the monitor lizard to the barangay, and was later turned over to the Antipolo City Animal Control Team upon responding to the report. The CVO explained that monitor lizards secrete venom that they use to kill their small prey. It noted that the lizards pose more danger to pet dogs and cats since the venom can be deadly to small pets, and only has a relatively mild effect on humans., while the venom of a monitor lizard is not fatal to humans, "the main concern would be the bacterial infection from the bite.
The CVO can be contacted using their hotline or at their office at the barangay hall of San Isidro, located at San Jose Street corner Lorenzo, Sumulong Memorial Circle.The Animal Control Team will also be able to safely relocate the animal to its proper habitat, the CVO added.
