    I love finding the green anoles hanging around my deck. We seem to have many of them here in NC.

    In 2013 when I helped my brother move back up to Fort Worth from Corpus Christi, Texas, I first encountered these little amazing lizards. I had never seen or heard of these before living so far up in North Central Texas, as I guess it gets much too cold in winter time for them as it does drop below freezing this far North. However, I was fascinated by these little animals, they were so active, unlike any other reptile I had seen before. Almost mammal like in how active they were.
    My brother had them all over in his back yard. I mean they were in large packs of them, and this was right in the suburbs. Since then I have always wanted to learn more about them, and this little mini series has taught me everything I wanted to know about these fascinating little lizards.

      I live in Fort Worth and use to make trips to Florida where my grandma lives and catch these little guys all day. Here in Fort worth I have never seen any brown anoles and I have only seen a few green anoles(although there are lots of them at the botanic garden in Fort Worth). Now I have a tank with a brown anole and a green anole named lizzy and ivy.

    I have this small group Carolina Anoles that are god damn infiltrators. Every time we put them outside, they always find a way inside. They were on our Christmas tree yesterday.

    Obviously they aren't evolving to their main predator... the fishing pole

    I live near Tampa FL and we have mostly the brown anoles but on very rare occasions (literally like once every few years) I spot a green one. But then last week we vacationed in Lake Lure, NC and there were green anoles all around our cabin! I didn’t realize they lived that far north! I’m curious how far north they can be found.

    I do not understand their fishing poles....anoles are super easy to just grab/catch.

    • @fudgenugget8763
      @fudgenugget8763 3 роки тому +4

      Not exactly there pretty skiddish and fast for most people but for someone like me who has been catching these guys all his life yea there pretty easy to catch. Although I will say the fishing pole tactic is probably more efficient and has a higher success rate.

      Actually it's been proven that newer species can actually evolve in as little as 2 generations.

    • @GoHerp
      @GoHerp 2 роки тому

      this is so false. most anoles live 3 years. takes about 3 generations. 9 years to see evolution.
