I used to camp up at a National Park in Central Queensland and it was similar there. For many years goannas and kookaburras and other wildlife were fed by people. Anyway, I was up there one year and as you did back in the day, I decided to feed a goanna some raw sausage. I was squeezing he sausage meat out of the end of the sausage, being sure not to get my thumb in the way as the big lizard rose on its hind legs to grab the meat. I did this right up to the last bit of sausage. It was at the end of my thumb as I stretched my hand out towards the lizard. It was just then that I realised how stupid I was. I was pulling my hand back when the goanna grabbed at the sausage mince...and got my thumb. I had multiple razor-like cuts along my thumb. I was just intelligent enough to thoroughly wash the wound and apply disinfectant and antiseptic straight after. Yeah, those teeth are like tiny razor blades.
