@Kurt I wish lizards were real.

@Kurt But if we are lizarding ...

Favorite smol lizard: Emerald tree skinks. They are absolutely without comparison. Clever, curious, cute and they will jump right on you and ride on you for fun. Really, if you have not seen them, here is a video https://youtu.be/sMH_gx7r6BY

Favorite large lizard: Crocodile monitors. They are tough, look beautiful and are highly intelligent. Handle them with respect, they are one of the few lizard which could straight up kill you, but they very likely won't. They have beautiful eyes, a very pretty scale pattern and often like to interact.
