    That has been my experience too. I really would like to understand why they are so bold relative to other species. Just off the top of my head I can't think of even a lizard that out-does the tiger salamander. Can you?

    I used to have a giant day gecko, Phelsuma madagascariensis grandis that would come up to me and take food from my fingers through the mesh of the screen top of his cage. So I guess you can say he was interactive. He would freak out if you actually put your hand in the cage, but through the mesh he felt safe enough to take food from my hand.

    I'll chime in on the lizard. I have a very old Uromastyx that is very nearly dog like. (Trying not to anthropomorphize) He is incredibly interactive. And from what I understand Phyllomedusa are also quite interactive and friendly.

    I have had my Phyllomedusa hypochondrialis for 8+ years now, its not very interactive at all.

    after a year, two of three grf's hop on my hand when I reach in to refill the water dish. they are used to me messing with the tank, and no longer stress as they first did. one got out, and woke me by hopping on my face, and now must hop onto my face during cleanings or feedings if it can.
