Anoles: Those Florida Yard Lizards

Anoles are in practically everybody's yard in Florida, yet few people know much about them. They're mistakenly called chameleons, geckos or skinks. Why be clueless? Learn where they came from, where they live, how they establish and defend territories, what they eat, what eats them, why they change color, how they climb up smooth surfaces like glass, how they mate and bear young, and much more. This book is highly educational and informative; whimsical and humorous; a pleasurable learning experience for adults and youngsters alike; loaded with more than 30 original illustrations--over 20 in full color; for Florida residents, eco-minded tourists, folks in other states populated by anoles, plus anole pet owners and animal lovers everywhere. ItÕs a fantasy based almost entirely on fact. Ann and Noel are lizards that communicate with a human, whom they affectionately call "Humie." Say their names in rapid succession and you get ... ANOLE. This book has an important message, too: How to help save the native green anoles while encouraging beneficial plant growth. A green book.
