A “large” Nile monitor lizard, subsequently named Rocky Resin by staff at resin manufacturer NCS in Prospecton, south of Durban, was caught by Nick Evans recently.
Evans said he was contacted by the company about a large Nile monitor lizard that had taken up residence on their property.
He said the lizard was mostly spending its time in a drain that ran along a wall that had filled up with water.
“While no one was too bothered about it, there was a big problem. It’s other favourite hang-out was a small compartment where water was stored, and where there was a pump,” he said.
