Hey there! Did you know that most social interactions among lizards 🦎 are between breeding individuals? It's pretty fascinating stuff! Territorial behavior is quite common, especially in species that use sit-and-wait hunting 🤺 strategies. Males typically set up and defend territories that attract females with key resources like basking spots ☀️, feeding areas 🐛, and nesting sites 🌳 while also offering protection from predators.

So, what's your favorite lizard 🦎? If you're not a fan of these scaly creatures, I'd love to know why! Personally, I find blue-tongued skinks super cool. And let's not forget about the mighty Komodo Dragons 🐉, they're just incredible!

This water dragon / goanna lived a happy well-fed life at the Chinese Friendship Garden in Darling Harbour, Sydney. It was very interested in my dumplings but I didn't want to share so it it lost interest in me. My photo from 2011.

Bestial Human Monitor Lizard

These lizard bestial humans have a tough time getting admitted into a human settlement, and unless arriving with known humans, cyborgs or mutant humans, will be turned away at gunpoint. Even when admitted entry, often with a bribe of 30+3d6sp slipped to the guards, the monitor lizard must remain confined to the unit’s quarters and will not be allowed into any saloon, store or eatery.

A beautiful lizard that I spotted in Florida during my last trip there. I'm extremely interested in the animal kingdom (mainly birds, just fyi) and this lizard really sparked my interest. I hadn't seen one like that before.

After searching the web, I'm almost 100% certain it's a male Peter's rock agama, or Agama picticauda. It has become increasingly common in South Florida over the last few years. First documented in Florida in 1976, this lizard is considered to be an invasive species. It originates from tropical sub-Saharan Africa.

The male is approximately 20-30 cm of length, while the female is about 9.4-12.3 cm.

My photo really isn't the best, but you can still see the lovely colors of this little guy!
