Question: what is the difference between a lace monitor and a goanna?
Answer: In fact, Lace Monitors are known as Tree Goannas and are thought to eat more bird eggs than other goanna species. The Sand Goanna is also known as the Racehorse Goanna. ... While they may appear slow, goannas are fast runners and will sprint short distances on their hind legs – often to the safety of water or a tree.
