Lizard leg

This was so funny!

During a tour to Augrabies Falls, I neede to get better pictures of the Augrabies Flat Lizard which is only found there.

I had stopped to photograph them on the rocks and this young male walked up to my feet and was smelling my shoe or something. LOL!! The pictures were taken looking straight down and that is my leg you see on the left hand side of the pictures. I wonder what he thought he could eat there? :)

Augrabies Flat Lizard (Platysaurus broadleyi)

Family Cordylidae

Some animals/insects are only found in one small area and this lizard is one of them.

 They occupy a small area around Augrabies Falls which is situated in the Northern part of SA, near the Namibia border. The male reaches a length of about 15cm. The female looks very different to the male.
