EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Nose for Adventure: The Palawan Monitor Lizard's Keen Sense of Smell" 2.. This image showcases the Palawan Monitor Lizard (Varanus marmoratus), a remarkable reptile species native to the tropical forests of the Philippines, as it rests on a forest path with its tongue outstretched. The lizard's keen sense of smell is on full display, as its forked tongue collects airborne particles to identify potential threats or prey. Once considered a subspecies of the common monitor lizard (Varanus salvator), the Palawan Monitor Lizard is now recognized as a distinct species within the same complex. This large, powerful lizard can grow up to 7 feet (2.1 meters) in length and is an essential component of the diverse wildlife community in the Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park in Sabang, Palawan, Philippines. The Palawan Monitor Lizard's highly developed olfactory sense plays a crucial role in its survival. Its tongue, which is covered in papillae, rapidly flickers in and out to gather scent particles from the environment. These particles are then analyzed in the Jacobson's organ, located at the roof of the mouth, to identify various chemicals, enabling the lizard to detect predators, prey, and even potential mates. The rich biodiversity of the Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park is home to numerous amphibians, reptiles, and other fascinating creatures, making it an essential destination for wildlife enthusiasts and researchers. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the intriguing world of the Palawan Monitor Lizard and its extraordinary ability to navigate its environment through the power of its sense of smell. 3.
