Yellow Collared Lizard

Yellow Collared Lizard

The small lizards were running away from us, this one just kept getting close and closer - I expected this mini dinosaur to attack any time...but it just kept looking.

Darwin comes to mind

If there are plenty of these cute lizards, chances are that some will be more curious than others. If it gets them an advantage, they'll get more offspring and, on average, future generations will be more curious, and we'll get to take more pictures of them.

On the other hand, if your dog eats them...

Re: Darwin comes to mind

Let's hope this curious little one will survive and make lots of babies. Come back in a few million years and we might have lizard friends like cats and dogs.

Nice catch Liba.

Re: Darwin comes to mind

Mmmm... I might not live another million years. Mind you, I'm working on it - I've managed to stay alive so far. So, let's apply some basic statistics: I'm 53 now, and never died, so that means my chance of dying on a yearly basis equals 0/53 * 100%. Hey, that's zero! I'll live forever! I'll get to that million after all!

I'll make a private note to remind me to reply to this post by then.

Cheers, Rob

Re: Darwin comes to mind

Guys, this little creature wanted to be photographed. It kept getting closer and closer. I got about 20 photos from diferrent angles.
Wiki mentions that it could be tamed...
Thanks for interest. I was a little afraid that it may jump on me...

Re: Darwin comes to mind

Hey Rob, the math seems to work! So, why not live for a million or two or forever. Then, lizards will be taking our picture.
