Some desert animals are able to get water from the food they eat, but what about animals that come from less arid areas? Chloe Chabaud & co show that common lizards don’t get water from food but the type of food they eat helps stave off dehydration

Green iguanas! Unfortunately like many reptiles in Florida these are actually invasive. In winter there's an advisory to be careful because it gets too cold for green iguanas and they fall out of trees and off power lines and hit people in the head! #herpetology

In her #JEB100 ECR Spotlight, @chloechabaud tells us about her PhD showing that common lizards do not gain much water from their diet, but when their diet is rich the reptiles are able to remain in better condition when water is scarce, helping scientists to understand how climate change might affect food chains in the wild

Remember when the herpetologists on the birdsite had a spat about whether it was OK to call a snake a "snek" in loving affection? Alas.
Here's a gorgeous young adult California kingsnake who was crossing a gravel road as a glorious blue supermoon shone through the smoke last night.

A bit of #herping down by the Cape Fear River this morning. Spotted a juvenile American #Alligator (A. mississippiensis - 5ft or less) just after daybreak, then a beauty adult Common 5-Lined #Skink (P. fasciatus - almost 6 inches) as the sun cleared the trees.

Even though cooling down to digest dinner is a risky strategy - it takes longer leaving reptiles vulnerable to attack - thirsty Children's pythons find a cooler spot and now Jill Azzolini & co have discovered that the parched reptiles choose to keep cool to conserve water
