Split-tail anole

[Rylee]

Yep, you read right! Found this girl yesterday. She is now mine

Pretty neat. I have seen that happen a few times with other species of lizards and geckos that regenerate their tails. Don't think I have seen it in an anole before.

Wow - Interesting! What causes that? Is it really susceptible to falling off? Nice new addition!

 

[Rylee]

Yeah, can only find one picture on the internet besides mine. And it's not really prone to falling off from what i can see, just like any other tail, but two at the end. I don't know what causes it.. ill research it. Thanks.

It's when part of it falls off, probably something biting it off or some kid pulling it off, but it grows out weird and two tails split from the stub.

 

[Rylee]

Yeah i figured.

 

[Amanda1]

Very cool! She's very pretty too!

 

[Rylee]

Thanks. Yeah she's also gravid.
