Monitor lizard scavenging on a sheep carcass

[dragonblade71]

Out in the rugged wilderness of Australia, I came across the body of a very large and very dead sheep. Putting up with the foul smell, I decided to stick around and see if any scavenging animals would be lured to the carcass. After waiting for a few hours behind a tree with a tripod-mounted video camera, a goanna emerged to feast on the deceased sheep...

Very cool video, now I want to find a carcass. Not likely where I live (and I won't get much cool stuff, only mammals or birds )
