A large potbellied lizard. Normally seen as in above photo. You most generally find this lizard on large rocks, and it will scurry off and hide at the slightest movement or being frightened. In the mornings you could see it sunning it self on a rock. It like to have its body temp. to around 100 degrees before it starts off to find food. This is a herbivorous feeder.
