rdfs:comment
  • Large fatty lizard, often eaten grilled.
  • There are around 30 species of goanna, 25 of which are found in Australia. They are a varied group of carnivorous reptiles that range greatly in size and fill several ecological niches. The goanna features prominently in Aboriginal mythology and Australian folklore.
  • Goanna is depicted as a large, well fed Australian Monitor Lizard (Varanus Spp.), with a deep, soothing gravelly voice. Almost all of the reptile's body is grayish-blue, with a red-orange underbelly and arms. He lacks a visible nose and has large, black stripes all over his body. Goanna has large, powerful claws and light-green eyes with black eyelids. Real goannas are supposed to be carnivores, but FernGully's is seen purposely eating a large tree branch.
