1 Anole Reptiles for sale in Normanton, West Yorkshire

Anole, also known as Green Anole or simply anoles, are small arboreal lizards native to tropical and subtropical regions of the Americas, with a high presence in the Caribbean. These reptiles are recognised for their slender bodies, long tails, and the males' brightly coloured dewlap, a throat fan used for communication. Green Anoles are notable for their ability to change colour, predominantly shifting between green and brown based on environmental conditions. They exhibit a calm temperament, yet males can be territorial, using display behaviours like head-bobbing to assert dominance. Their suitability as pets in the UK depends on the owner's ability to provide a warm, humid environment that mimics their natural habitat.
