Newby in skink forum with a newby skink

l_l3lackwolf_l May 01, 2005 12:20 PM

Hi, this is the first time im in this forum coz i came up in my garden with what i think is a skink( we dont get big wild skinks in Spain, must be a poor, lost or rejected ex-pet). Anyways, i just dont have the idea what kind of skink( if im right and it is a skink) it is? if it not a skink( dont bite me), looks like an alligator lizard of some kind i ignore at the moment too. Here is the first pic so far.
Thanks,
Sheri

Common name is the Four Lined Plated Lizard/Scientific name is Zonosaurus quadrilineatus. Most Madagascan Plated Lizard species are rarely offered now and to the unexperienced looks similar to a type of skink. The Plated Lizard Forum is the place to be.
