No, Varanus species, commonly known as monitor lizards, are not poisonous. They possess a strong bite and have bacteria in their saliva that can cause infections, but they do not have venom like some other reptiles. Some species may exhibit aggressive behavior if threatened, but they rely on their physical attributes for defense rather than venom.
