I'm usually a bit afraid of lizards, but this chubby one is oddly cuddly looking. Not sure about the lizard kiss though.

These guys can become very friendly and tame. Had 5 wild lizards that we kept feeding fruit and veg every morning, and soon enough, they stopped being afraid of us, came up to us nudging for grub. We ended up with them every morning on parade, waiting for food, and later, they got their wee ones, and they were invited by the parents and waited next to them, to get grub. water melon, apple, oranges, allsorts..

I really wish they'd stop the importation of all reptiles. Have of them end up in our shelters

that tegu lizard is really overfed. he's very obese. what people often forget about reptiles is the fact that reptiles have metabolisms about one seventh as fast as ours, in general, so don't need to eat much. i'd say that tegu only needs to be fed once a week with one thawed-out rat - yes, you can buy frozen rats from pet shops, as they sell that for pet snakes. reptiles enjoy our hot bodies' heat, but they don't comprehend or much enjoy hugs - they're not mammals. :-)

Is it obese???

he's wonderful

Baby animals, by their very nature, are hard to resist. They are incredibly cute and appear dependent upon others for their very survival. But within a few months, those babies grow up and their natural instincts kick in. They may bite, scratch, tear up the furniture, or worse. This is usually the time that most people who have tried raising a wild animal decide it's time to release it back into the wild. But the problem is that the baby animal may not have developed the critical skills necessary — like hunting for food or evading predators — to survive in the wild.

That's actually pretty gosh darn adorable little guy :3 I wish I could pet him!

He’s beautiful! Thank you for sharing. It’s amazing how loving reptiles can be. They really are misunderstood by so Many!

Great! Except for the giving kisses part.

Still, I wouldn't like to find this in my sheets...

I love reptiles and this little guy is so beautiful! These pics are adorable!

is he obese?

is a FABULOUS lizard <3

Awww, that's life. Hahaha, this lizard has it better than me. Just look at him sleeping. He really loves his owner.

I'll stick with dogs cats and horses, thanks. ( we have plenty of lizards in the yard, the dogs love to chase them)

wow over weighted lizard

This little guy is amazing! I never knew that cold blooded creatures could actually enjoy human companionship like this lizard seems to do. Makes me want one just to freak my friends out with. (Hmm wonder how my cats would react to him?) *L*

He has a cute personality I guess? Reptiles just aren't my gig. That being said, she seems to really love her scaly guy, so good on her!

For a person who can't handle being in the same room as cats, dogs, and other domestic animals, this would be absolutely terrifying. *shudders*

Reptiles have never bothered me, but adorable & lizard in the same sentence? I think not.

This is fantastic! I have two snakes myself and volunteer with them for education outreach. We need more herp awareness!

Awww he is adorable!

Aww! MacGyver the lizard is not an old man and I am so glad I did this little bit by myself. And the money you get is a little more awesome.

chinese are stupis and must be banned from white countries. the animal may stay.
