In January of 2013, I noticed that there was a large lizard eating, with some difficulty, a tarantula it had caught. Apparently, this normally canopy dwelling animal, saw the tarantula in the ground and decided that it was just a too tempting a prey to pass up. I was able to take a number of photos before it headed back up to the canopy. The color of this particular animal is unusual as it is rare to see brown adult individuals, it is even rarer that this form is photographed. The normal color for adults of this species is green, inmature individuals are brown. Note the very long tail, more than twice as long as the whole body.
