The other pets

Ebony, if you think they are spectacular, than hold onto your seat. They can also run on their hind legs across water. Another common name for these awesome lizards is "Jesus Christ lizard"

I love those guys. I think I caught one at some hot springs in Costa Rica, they are so hard to catch.

Oh don't I know it that they are hard to catch!! Got mine home & it ran straight out of the viv! Took a good sweaty scared 15 mins to get hold of again. Never have I known such a quick animal before.

I try to catch her carefuly every now & then to get used to bein handled & it's still a nightmare!

They are so fast and so comical to watch as they run in the water. I found myself watching all the video's and photo's I could fine on the net. I think I'm hooked. They are so beautiful yet so hilarious.

Jup just amazing creatures. They are on my list.
