This is how it could look
Impressive crossing scene: large monitor lizard — kind that grows to two metres or more — crossing jungle river. Lizard impressive animal: large body held high on powerful legs, long tail sweeping behind for balance. Crossing dramatic: river fast-flowing with white water around rocks; lizard picking way carefully across stepping stones, choosing each footing with precision. Long forked tongue flicking out, testing air. Expression: total focus and alertness. Far bank: dense jungle vegetation. On crossing stones: small crabs and frogs rapidly getting out of way of large lizard. Kingfisher on rock watching crossing with interest. Fish visible in clear water below.
