How to Catch a Lizard

Lizards are fun, but they can be hard to catch. In a tropical climate, like that of Florida or St. Thomas, they can be found in many places. They commonly hide on the backs of trees and lightpoles, and are easy to catch if you know how. First, you need to locate the lizard and go to the opposite side of the tree/lightpole. Keep track of how high up the lizard is, and remember it. Then, in a fluid but gentle motion, slam your hand down o the lizard and don't let him go. Carefully take him out from under your hand, but make sure not to grab him by his tail, which will detach. Also, remember that he will bite you. Carefully let him go when you are done holding him, and there you have it! You have just caught your very own lizard.
