All evidence seems to indicate that Savannah Monitors don't frequent streams very often.

Mine is a pretty capable swimmer. I have been surprised. Also, Mine will only poop in his water. The annoying part is sometimes he will hold it in and wait until I change his water.

Edit: From what I have read, been told, and have experienced, these extremely intelligent animals usually choose the water because they understand from an early age that it is changed daily. I think most keepers that change daily will find that their lizard chooses this as a toilet bowl because it will not have to live with its own crap.
