THE WILD-MAN'S WILD FRIENDS VIDEO SERIES - EPISODE 38 - LITTLE BROWN SKINK

in #wild-man7 years ago (edited)

The Little Brown Skink, a skink that is little and brown!


I first found these in 2004 down in the woods near the Mississippi River in New Orleans. Here in Arkansas, we have an abundance as well.

The Little Brown Skink (Scincella lateralis) is a small lizard that can often be found across the South-Eastern United States if you are looking. Because they spend a lot of their time under leaf litter and logs in the forest searching for small bugs and insects to eat, they are not always seen even when they are present. Their tiny size and coloration also make them more difficult to locate.

Like many other lizards, the tail of the Little Brown Skink can detach when grabbed or threatened. They will lay tiny eggs, but most often only a few at a time. To learn more, check out the video below.

The information is the video is original but I did have a quick refresher from this source.

I love the skink! I first learned about them from Carl Hiassen's books. One of his characters, a one-eyed ex-governor is nicknamed Skink. Great video as always @papa-pepper. Thanks!

You are an incredible being! Your vibration is so strong to connect with other animals like you do. Keep being a healing and uniting force for the planet. Let's follow and support each other @wild-man :)

Looks even more dinosauric than the Anoles do.

Amazing your little-brown-skinks, his body looks like same texture with a snake. I hope you have a nice time playing with them :-)

There are certainly snakes with the same texture as stinks like this. There are some pretty cool little guys, and we enjoyed them very much.

This is cool.
