    Good read as always, Frank.

    I came across a very interesting journal article of interest for this species (and a New York Times article as well). I believe you cited these researchers in your article:

    Lizards Cooperatively Tunnel to Construct a Long-Term Home for Family Members by Steve McAlpin, Paul Duckett and Adam Stow

    It can be viewed at the following url:
    PLOS ONE: Lizards Cooperatively Tunnel to Construct a Long-Term Home for Family Members

    Thanks for the kind words, Jeff, and the link. I'm glad to see such things are getting notice..so much to be done, and to discover. Well, that's why we do what we do! Best, Frank
