Aw, they’re so cute! So are the other ones who can’t glide; I hope they weren’t scared during the testing. This was neat to learn.

  Hi Ali. We live in Florida and lizards of all kinds live all around us. They find ways into our homes and are everywhere outside. I love the deep look channel. I enjoy learning about the creatures in our world. Hugs. Scottie
