Thailand has many zoo's and wildlife sanctuaries and quite often you can get the oppurtunity to eat crocodile eggs, or emu steaks and many other exoctic dishes, so post the pictures and videos to share here.

Weird Lizard

NATURE STUDY IN SATTAHIP VOL 1

Spotted this fellow the other day coming out of a crack in an old gate in the yard - it was about 30cm in length.
The wife called it a "Tukag/k" and apparently it's not a Thai favourite
Apparently if it latches on to you the suckers are very hard to remove - it might be poisonous ??


The day after this photo was taken the PIL where in a panic because a 2m long, thin green / grey snake was in the lizards nest / wood work and had bitten the tail off one of the smaller lizards (family of 4) - blood was everywhere

This larger lizard hung around for about an hour then attacked the snake which was was tossed out of the woodwork on to the he grass
The snake went rapidly towards the pool where i was swimming - FARUKE!!!
By the time I'd jumped out of the pool - which was pretty bloody quick - the Father-in-Law had clubbed the snake to death.

Does anyone know more about this Lizard??? - it kind of fascinates me the weird colours, the dehydrated piss colour eyes and the warts!!
