The emerald tree monitor (Varanus prasinus) or green tree monitor, is a small to medium-sized arboreal monitor lizard. It is known for its unusual coloration, which consists of shades from green to turquoise, topped with dark, transverse dorsal banding. This coloration helps camouflage it in its arboreal habitat Its color also makes the emerald tree monitor highly prized in both the pet trade and zoos alike.

What is the diet like? in the wild.
diet consists of large tree-dwelling arthropods, such as katydids, grasshoppers,other orthopterans, stick insects, cockroaches, beetles, centipedes, spiders and crabs, as well as birds and small mammals (such as the Moncton’s mosaic-tailed rat).] Before swallowing stick insects, the lizards tear off the legs.
Captive specimens tear off the limbs of rodents prior to eating them; as a result, they are capable of swallowing mammals of a considerable size!also can feed high protein, cat food with a low ash content, fish, turkey, meat, different insects, like crickets and mealworms, small pieces of chicken and egg are all good for their diet
