48. Anoles (as depicted in that picture) are fairly intersting lizards
|
Last edited Sun Sep 9, 2012, 07:13 PM USA/ET - Edit history (1) That particular species I am quite familiar with here in the south. The are known as the Carolina Anole or simply the Anole. The male typically has to do a lot of romancing to get a female. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carolina_anole
These are all over the south, and we are extremely familiar with them. I think Louisiana and Mississippi variants display different characteristics in diet, and aggressiveness, but oh well I didn't mean to get off into lecture mode, but I love these guys as one of the natives of our area I've always loved anoles |

49. Oh
|
And I tamed a few of them, too, before I released them. Reptiles are NOT dumb, and neither are birds, which I also kept a few of (a brilliant cockatiel that could speak several words). Our animal friends and allies are not unintelligent if you pick the right ones. I don't advocate attempting to be a buddy with an alligator.
