What Kind Of Lizard Is This?

RE: What Kind Of Lizard Is This? Post by Mary Moo (32) | (08/15/2008) Contact Sounds like this guy is a good guy to have around! I just read the Wikipedia article and here's an excerpt: It is thought that the presence of western fence lizards diminishes the danger of transmission of Lyme disease by ticks. The incidence of Lyme disease is lower in areas where the lizards occur, and it has been found that when ticks carrying Lyme disease feed on these lizards (which they commonly do, especially around their ears), the bacteria that cause the disease are killed.

Thank you SO much, Har'iet, for your help, and links!! Report Spam or Abuse RE: What Kind Of Lizard Is This? Post by Har'iet (99) | (08/14/2008) Profile | Contact Since the western fence lizard is the most common in California and that is where we live, that is probably what it is. They vary in color. One has a blue belly. One of my sons always caught them and examined them and let them go. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_fence_lizard http://images.google.com/images?sou ... image_result_group&resnum=1&ct=title Report Spam or Abuse
