What has no legs, scales, lives on the ground and can blink?



Just found this guy while I was cleaning up my yard this morning.
I'm not sure what killed him. My dog definitely didn't do it.
It's not cold anymore, but that might have been the cause.
I remember as a kid we used to catch these in malaluka forests,
which of course are non-native and ALL OVER the place.
They are native to FL. The coloring is pretty interesting, and
the position of the cloaca...
