Like most animals, they're harmless...until they bite you.

In this case, it's their saliva that causes the problem...lots of bad things in it's spittle.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first.

I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.

only the kamodo dragans have that deadly bacteria in their saliva, shes only dangerous when shes hungry, jumps at anything that she thinks is food. this one is know to be the most aggresive of monitors, took me 3 years to tame. I have a few friends that have scars from her, only because they where drunk trying to play with her. Its fun when I have partys and see who has the balls to feed her.

Before I wrote that reply...I looked it up to be sure I was right. I found this and several other articles.

"Capturing Nile monitors is definitely not for the faint hearted. Their bites can prove nasty and even fatal to humans and other animals, due to the fact that although they are not venomous, they do carry a variety of germs and potentially lethal pathogens in their saliva and medical treatment should be sought immediately. In addition, although they currently attempt to avoid people, if cornered they rear-up on their hind legs, hiss and lash out with their sharp teeth, claws and strong tails."

They are not venomous, their saliva is full of goobers that cause infection...making the bite more dangerous.
