who seems to watch the tv when he's near it. i try to keep the volume down so as not to scare him...
is he seeing whats on tv, or is he just stareing at something large and warm?

Answer 1

Hard to know; when I had Chinese water dragons, they would watch the TV also.
My hypothesis is that it is seen as a light source, which in nature would also be a heat source (the sun) and so they face it as if basking in it. I think they registered the amount of light in the environment as a clue to the season of the year; they were much more active in summer, though the temperature in their habitat was no different; they responded to light coming from windows.
In addition, the lifelike movements interest them to some degree. Movement is important to a reptile that eats live prey; my water dragons (like the t-rex in Jurassic Park) seemed unable to see prey as prey unless they were moving. If a cricket stopped, the lizard waited till it started moving again to grab it.

Answer 2

What you're asking is like announcing "Which of those super, carnivorous dinosaurs could win?" you does not comprehend till it happens. As for an knowledgeable wager, i ought to basically say that Vince could have the slightest hazard of procuring for ROH, yet I doubt they had sell the business enterprise, and Vince could not purchase it. Vince and the McMahon family contributors are wealthy and powerful, however the owner of ROH is conscious what could take place: Ring of Honor, decrease than the WWE call, could plummet. There could be DVD's of "the improve and Fall of RoH" and all previous followers could abhor Vince, and whomever substitute into the guy who pushed to sell. RoH is approximately wrestling, and you're able to be good at wrestling so plenty extra desirable than mic skills. you should be shy at public speaking, or have point combat, as long as you could attempt against extra desirable than 0.5 of the ineffective expertise in WWE and TNA, you will get in. there is not any way everyone in fee who is conscious that ought to grant up plenty paintings to construct careers. As for TNA's case, a huge fats NO. TNA isn't decrease than Dixie Carter's wing, it is decrease than the wing of the Carter family contributors, in Panda ability; a business enterprise with extra money than the McMahon's. If something, the TNA business enterprise are plenty extra possibly of possing the uncooked, SmackDown and NXT rosters than WWE are of possessing TNA and all of their expertise, PPV's, and so forth.
