Ja. Men tycker inte den svarar på frågan. Dom måste väll ha bredare diet än gnagare och insekter i fångenskap. Den känslan jag har fått när jag läst om nilvaraner i naturen e att dom äter istortsätt allt den kan. Även lite utav asätare.
E detta rätt e det jag undrar över?
Du kan nog ge dem en mängd olika föda. i naturen äter de nästan allt som rör sig

Nile monitors are stealthy hunters, concluding their predatory quests by pouncing with lightning speed on their prey. The teeth can administer a painful crushing bite, although this is likely to be lethal to only relatively small victims. While holding an adversary in its jaws, a Nile monitor can cause severe injuries with its claws. They often use a combination of jaws and powerful forelimbs to break the backs of their prey. They eat a variety of prey that includes frogs, toads (even poisonous ones of the genus Breviceps), rodents, fish, lizards, small turtles, birds and their eggs, beetles, orthopterans, crabs, caterpillars, spiders, millipedes, earthworms, and slugs. They have been known to rob crocodile nests for eggs. They may occasionally work in pairs to rob a crocodile nest, with one lizard distracting the guarding mother crocodile while the other races in to grab eggs. Even after hatching, newly emergent crocodiles are not safe. Hard-shelled mollusks are a conspicuous feature of Nile monitors' diets and a thickened skull, blunt crushing teeth, and bowed lower jaw make them well-equipped for breaking open thick shells. Land snails of the genus Achatina are Nile monitors' favorite prey. (Bartlett and Bartlett, 1996; Branch, 1998; Sprawls, et al., 2002; Steel, 1996)
