Goannas, also known as monitor lizards, are fascinating creatures that inhabit the vast Australian outback. Among the various species found in this region, two stand out: Gould's Sand Goanna and the Perentie Goanna. The Gould's Sand Goanna is a native of Australia and can be spotted near Lajamanu on the northern edge. With its sleek body and sandy-colored scales, it perfectly blends into its surroundings. This goanna holds a special place in Aboriginal culture as it remains a favorite food for many indigenous communities. On the other hand, we have the mighty Perentie Goanna - the largest goanna in Australia and second-largest in the world. Growing up to an impressive 5 meters long, encountering one of these giants would surely leave you awestruck. These magnificent reptiles roam freely through their natural habitat in Alice Springs, Northern Territory. In 1979, during a wildlife ranger expedition to this remote area, stunning photographs were captured that showcase both the beauty of these creatures and their unique environment. One such image captures a landed plane against a backdrop of breathtaking sunset hues over the Northern Territory landscape. Another photograph depicts mangroves lining an exquisite beach – nature at its finest. The contrast between land and sea creates an enchanting scene where goannas might wander along with other coastal wildlife. A close-up shot reveals intricate details of a Perentie Goanna's foot – each scale seemingly telling its own story about survival in this harsh terrain. This image was taken during Expo 70 Series when people from around the world gathered to celebrate diverse flora and fauna.
