This is awesome I didn't even know about them thank you so much! Edit: Spinosaurus rex which was that lizard you posted somewhere else, with the very big head, which in the picture had just caught a bird if I remember correctly? I think it was something very basal from new zeland or australia... do they fight?

your quite welcome. blue tongue are pretty vicious, aren't they? in the wild, they even go head to head attacking crows. but their sweethearts in captivity are you talking about the tuatara? their not necessarily lizards, but their physical traits could be compatible enough for them to qualify in this thread. I posted a couple photos in some other thread before( though, I can't remember which ) but yes, these primitive, big headed reptiles have parasitic relationships with sea birds in new Zealand. living in their roost and eat the babies, even the adult sea bird on occasions. as for fighting, the adults are documented as cannibalistic among smaller, younger tuataras. and males partake in head bobbing and crest raising in territorial disputes, but i'm not aware if there is any video evidence showing the reptile fighting each other.heres a few photo though, if you like ![]() ![]() Edited by spinosaurus rex, Jul 21 2014, 08:59 AM.

I freaking love alligator lizards. so a video on them must be on here. these are definitely the southern species. just look at that bright orange, tiger striped back. Edited by spinosaurus rex, Jul 21 2014, 09:02 AM.

two Bahaman anoles fighting. what I found interesting is that just like the knight anole, they partake in vigorous scratching at or near the facial areas. |

i'm perceiving these lizards as northern alligator lizards. they seem a bit duller in coloration then their southern counterparts I posted earlier Edited by spinosaurus rex, Jul 21 2014, 08:58 AM.

i'll glad to say that i'm the first to post a video of a fight between two different lizard species. as the title says, it'd a long- nose leopard lizard attacking a whiptail tiger lizard. |

This is an attempt of predation, long nosed leopard lizards are specialist lizard eaters. Sometimes the prey they attempt to take kills them because they cannot swallow all of it. |

of course, but in this case, its prey item was giving resistance, and even made attempts to fight back, so I think it qualifies to an extant. |

I northern alligator lizards tend to be duller but it's by no means a law that one is always vibrant while the other dull, the main difference seems to be scale pattern in my opinion. |

I always have trouble differiciating between alligator lizard species. I allways perceived the northern species to be different in coloration then the southern by comparison. can you explain the scale difference? does it involve the labial scales? post labial scales? please tell
