Lizard Nativity

[koosie]

That's kind of cute. Do they take it in turns? You know I possibly don't need to know. As long as they're thriving lizards, that's the main thing.
Is it possible to hybridise lizards as we do plants? Find another lizard from the same genus and produce a viable male pseudo-Desert Whiptail? Really muck things up for their reptilian feminist utopia.

I was talking to a venerable gentleman who recounted to me that there's footage of a bbc wildlife crew sprinting away in sheer panic when a Komodo Dragon got too close. Can you imagine what was going through their minds? Can't imagine much would have the ability to alarm you after surviving that. Either that or you'd be cowering under the bed imagining whopping great lizards round any corner. Anyway this gent also said that 96% of the gene pool of this planet was lost in the mass extinction of the Permian, long before the dinosaurs and at the end of the era that made all that fuel we're chugging.
