Anolis cristatellus, 11 June 2016

Anolis cristatellus, the Puerto Rican crested anole;
Miami-Dade county, Florida (11 June 2016).

A shot of James Stroud gently holding a double-tailed Puerto Rican crested anole in south Florida. This is a non-native species fairly abundant throughout stretches of southern Florida. As for the double-tailed action, this happens sometimes when anoles regrow their tales. Here’s a short blurb on anole double-tail action over at Anole Annals!
