Location record only, no photo of the animal.
I saw a goanna, over 1.2m long, lying on the side of the road when I drove past heading south. It ran off as I walked back and it was scared by another car passing from the south. I was unable to take a photo, but at least the animal was off the road and wasn't run over.
