Lizard Battle!!

When we were on Little Cayman, I witnessed an epic battle that rivaled the grittiest sequence of 300. Now you too can witness the cold-blooded (ha!) fury. I really like the head-bobbing thing.
It reminds me of Quagmire. Nothing says scary violence like Glen Quagmire.

I am sure the lizards were just having a bit of foreplay before the nookie

Wow Dan, you must like it rough! :D

It's all fun and games until someone loses a tail.

Think of the children.
This is a family-oriented blog, Matt.
Keep it in your pants.

i actually agree with the first post there...lizards mate in an aggressive manner, from a side approach that looks like the first part of the vid! The head bobbing is definitely a territorial & mating behavior...the fact thta only one is bobbing it's head kind makes me think he's male. :D

Now, the armor wearing is just too cool. Glad to see that you could move around enough to joust or otherwise do battle, if the opportunity presented itself!

One of the workers at the villas said he thought it was territorial and that the bigger one would almost certainly win.
I'm pretty sure they were both bobbing their heads, but I didn't get video of the other one doing it.

I heard a rumour that an acquaintance of mine is also building a suit of armor. I plan to engage him in battle on video and post for all you kind people. So you have that to look forward to. Woo!

Thanks. It was a blast.
It's a good thing I didn't trip though, as I don't think I could have gotten up. Hahaha.

Also, I wonder what kinds of things lizards have disagreements about.

I just posted some of the party pics, but we will have to do a full exchange of photos sometime soon. I would like to have the ones on PL's camera of Mark strutting his stuff. :)
