Facts:
• Merauke blue tongue skinks are the longest variety of blue tongue skink, often reaching over 2 feet in length. 
• This Indonesian species thrives in higher humidity compared to Australian blue tongues and benefits from deep substrate for burrowing. 
• Meraukes are known for their calmer personalities, large appetites, and beautiful banded pattern with orange or reddish tones along the sides.
• Like other blue tongue skinks, they display their bright blue tongue as a defensive warning when startled or threatened.
