MONAGHAN'S AN INSECT GEEK
LOST star DOMINIC MONAGHAN is a secret fan of creepy crawlies and has a collection of insects and reptilian pets at his Los Angeles home.
Dominic Monaghan attending KOOZA, the big top touring show from Cirque du Soleil which was held at Santa Monica Pier. California, USA - 16.10.09
The British actor admits he's fascinated by his unconventional pets - and is on the lookout for his next killer companion.
Monaghan tells Maxim magazine, "I have a royal python named Mojave, a black widow spider called Samantha, and Indiana, a whip scorpion. I'm going to get a praying mantis, but I'm waiting for the right one."
The 32 year old explains the appeal of coldblooded creatures: "I never thought I could learn much from a dog or cat. They sleep when we sleep, they eat when we eat. I'm into observing animals being as wild as they can be in a captive environment."
And he warns fans they could be closer to killer insects than they realise: "L.A. is overrun with black widow spiders. I could find you one on the street in 10 minutes."
