Wildlife Spotting

There are at least 28 species of Leiocephalus originating mostly from the Caribbean. Without the lizard in hand to examine scale counts, it may be impossible to determine which species. It is definitely not native and should be captured and placed into captivity if possible.

Hi there! This doesn't look to be any of the native species, and it doesn't look to be a wall lizard either (they haven't been recorded in Oregon either). This being from a plant nursery, it is very likely that this came in on a plant from who knows where, meaning it could be anything! If you know where many of the plants come from, at least if they mostly come from one continent or another, that may help with narrowing it down. Unfortunately this happens a lot and it's how animals end up in places they aren't supposed to be!
