Lizard rescue

Rescued this little guy today. He had got stuck onto a luggage tag, took a bit of time and water to release him.

Aw, poor baby. I hope he ran off fully recovered.

Isn't it sad all the things we take for granted and use without thinking ... can sometimes have such unintended, harmful consequences? If you hadn't found this little guy (anole?) and rescued him, he would have died. Kudos!

Please tell me you said "looks you you got yourself in to a sticky situation"

I'll see myself out.......

Haha good one TEG!! It's true Deeanna about harmful stuff we don't even think about. So next time you pull off a luggage label stick the ends together, lesson learnt. And just as a side note this label had been on the suitcase for about 5 years if not longer as we have not used that case again and still it was very sticky.

Great deed for the day. Do you know what kind he is?

If they are in the west, it is probably a california alligator lizard.

Not sure what type of lizard he is. They are very common here in the houses, eat mosquitoes, flies etc so good to have around. I live in Zambia, Africa not california unfortunately!
