Well to me it looks like some kind of Anole. I have owned Anoles in the past but they were much smaller. Can you guy's keep anoles and iguanas as pets there? :confused:

Yep.. Im gonna do a search on Anoles and see what i can find..

I was right, it IS a Knight Anole! I talked to a few people and gosh darnet I was right! :D

Also if you can catch it and keep it, that'd be the best if you are willing to learn about his specific care needs etc. They are supposedly really bad for the native lizards there. :( They said he was either imported on some plants or someone let him go because they weren't interested in him anymore. :( :mad:

I'm jealous ... all those cool lizards in Florida. We have like one species here. :rolleyes:

Made me laugh when it said green iguanas were 10" - 14", though. I used to have a green iguana that was almost six feet long. :D

*Laughs* Yep, when I saw it I thought it looked like an anole! They're fun, active, freindly critters. Enjoy Mr. Lizard!

I'm jealous too! All we pretty much have here are blue bellies. (All though I love their tummys!)
