Daily Nature Fix: Animals From My Workplace. (Original Photos)

Hi folks. For tonight's Daily Nature Fix, I wanted to share a few photos of animals at the aquarium/zoo I work at. They wanted me to snap a few portraits of some of the reptiles for the website and social media.

^^^This little fella is a Grandis day gecko. You know, just like the car insurance one. He nearly seemed as if he was posing for me!

^^^This here is an abronia, also called an alligator lizard. They're little. Maybe only around 6 inches long... but really cool. Their scales make them look like tiny dragons. They're from Mexico and other parts of central America.

^^^Here's a Wagler's pit viper. They have some really cool color and pattern to them, and their venom is somewhat mild compared to other viper species. They're sometimes referred to as "temple vipers" due to their dense populations near a few ruins in Malaysia.

^^^This little guy is one of my favorites in the whole zoo. They are pygmy leaf chameleons from Madagascar. They're only around 2 inches long and look almost exactly like dried leaves. In this photo, there's actually the silhouette of a second one in the foreground.
