This is the astonishing moment a giant monitor lizard was seen walking along the pavement.<br /><br />The creature - estimated to be around 6ft long and weigh 50kg (110lbs) - was walking down a hill in Nonthaburi, central Thailand, on March 17.<br /><br />Dance teacher Pattarasaya Mala was travelling in a car with her friend when she noticed the enormous reptile.<br /><br />Pattarasaya is heard in the video mentioning the huge size of the Asian Water Monitor Lizard.<br /><br />She says: "Oh my god! I have never seen lizard as big as this before. Where are you going little boy? We are so scared of you. You are so big."<br /><br />The lizard appeared to have climbed out of a nearby canal and ventured onto the pavement. After having its morning walk disturbed, the animal turned around and headed back towards the water.<br /><br />Pattarasaya added: ''I've seen small lizards before but this was something different. It's very rare to see such a large monitor lizard in public. I hope it found the way back to the water safely.''
