Hello my dear friends of Hive, today I want to share with you that a type of lizard has arrived to my coconut tree a few weeks ago, when I saw it for the first time I did not take it much into account, but we could observe that when we were in the patio, as a defense mechanism it remained immobile and to a certain extent its skin turned to the color of the environment. This really caught our attention.
Even if it seems a little unbelievable to you, my family thinks she is our pet, and I will tell you why. During these days we noticed that she had a tick on her neck, and what do you know! Although we thought that at no time we could remove it because as something natural she was going to move away from us, with a lot of patience we approached her to gain her trust, obviously at the first time she didn't let us approach her, neither the second nor the third time, but my family's patience was stronger.
One day when we thought he was going to make another unsuccessful attempt, with an eyebrow puller in his hand, and making very gentle movements, he allowed us to hold that tick and be able to detach it from his neck, from there my family, all of us, took more affection for him, in fact, so much so at home we have a cat named "Mirú" of which we take great care so that he does not eat it, every time he approaches the coconut tree we do not lose sight of him.
Seeing how docile this lizard has become I took the initiative to take some pictures of them to share them with all of you, and as I said before I think their defense mechanism is that they stay as calm as possible when someone approaches them, although it was not so easy to get some pictures of them, I think that compared to other types of lizards they gave me their best angles.
At home we love animals very much, and my family and myself in particular, are very happy to have been able to help her by removing the tick. This fact taught us that we should always take care of our animals, even if they are not our pets we should do everything in our power to help them, I hope you like the pictures. For us she will continue to be our pet, at least until she decides to leave, although she already has some weeks with us.
