The Red Argentine Tegu is a robust and intelligent lizard native to South America, known for its vibrant red markings and impressive size. This species thrives in warm, humid envir onments with temperatures ranging from 85-95°F during the day and a cooler drop at night. Provide a spacious enclosure with a secure lid, substrate for burrowing, and a hide for security. Their omnivorous diet includes lean meats, insects, fruits, and vegetables, requiring a balanced calcium and vitamin supplement. Regular interaction helps them become docile, and monitoring humidity around 60-80% is essential for their skin health and overall wellbeing. Show more
