 Savannah monitor rescue!!

Does anyone in Central Indiana(US) have the time and money and space to rescue a 15"+ aggressive Savannah monitor? I am asking because I was asked to rescue it and I don’t have the money or the space to care for it. It is in a perilous situation in a local pet store, it has been there since february in a 20 gal long aquarium, improper lighting and feeding. Like I said, this monitor is aggressive, all you have to do is stand in front of its cage and it hisses at you, if you open its cage, it lunges at you. I think that it is tameable with alot of time and a massive amount of TLC and long term proper care, but I don’t know for sure. Also, it has been trying to shed for the last 2 weeks that I know of, could be longer, but again I just don’t know. If you can rescue it or know someone who can, please post and I will give you more information. Again, this is a rescue intended for an experienced caregiver, as I don’t know anything about this lizard other than it’s a savannah monitor, I believe it to be C.B. but it may be W.C.. I would recomend a vet visit asap.
