I look at my iguana, and see the body structure of an animal that copes well with water. I look at my Uro mali or the G. validus, and I see an animal that doesn't look very aquatic. The body structure is all wrong.

So I doubt Cylde's future habitat will be constructed around water.

After four years of caring for my Uro mali, I know there's a lot of conflicting information about exotic species. Sorting it out is one challenge of being a herp caretaker, I guess.
