A black and white tegu with mouth sores may need to have medication applied until the sores leave. It should be seen by a veterinarian, as it may need antibiotics.
Nope. I live on the Island and I saw about 3 Tegus on a shelf in Petland Discount :) It was a black and white Tegu. They are certainly not illegal! However, they do cost $100. Hoped that help!
columbian tegus can bite pretty hard and can draw blood. But argentine black and white tegus if handled to be tamed can be very rewarding! Wild tegus are harmful.
They shouldn't be that's what everyone will tell you but I have had a FEMALE bocs and a MALE black and white tegu ever since they were baby's an they do fine... If you are goin to try this tdo not put two males together as adults they become territorial an fight
tegu lizards eat a variety of different lizards
Martinique Spectacled Tegu was created in 1881.

Tegu is a large lizard native to South America.
It depends on the species - BUT - the commonest one found in petstores - the Argentine black and white tegu, (Tupinambis merianae) CAN grow as large as 54 inches ! Therefore you'd need a vivarium at LEAST 84 long by 48 deep and 72 inches high !
no they shouldnt
