its about 10-11 inches long, a brownish green color, slick scales like a snake, large head, long fingers.

Lizards are not venomous or dangerous. There is a venomous lizard called the Gila Monster, but they are big and pink and black and live in the desert. Leave the little bugger alone. He will eat bugs and thats a good thing. OK in your area you have reptiles a plenty. You lucky duck :). I love em. Most common are the green anoles wich can be brown or green or inbetween but really are not as big as the one you described. You also have several species of skinks. and common fence lizards. Here is a link to a page with pictures of BOTH the anole and the skink. http://www.pbase.com/ronnie_14187/the_re.
Look at all three pages of pics and you will see how the anoles change color and a couple skink pictures. Skinks come in MANY colors but have a distinctive body regardless. You do not have any dangerous lizards in your area.
Why are you touching strange lizards anyways?
its poisonous and you are probably dead already
Yes it is very dangerous if you eat it. Really!
ignore it and try not to touch it.
Call the humains socioty. And don't touch the lizard
To be safe, leave it alone cuz u dont know what it is!
It won't be dangerous but it will probably still bite.
If you find a matching one you can put them on your ears for earrings. :-)
show me a picture of this lizard, and I'll see what species this lizard could be along with whether it's poisonous. my e-mail is killerwhalesrule19@yahoo.com. I would love to see a picture of it.
pick it up..if it bites.its dangerous duh.
Hey! Put that back in Grandpa's pants!
RUN LIKE MAD! if not,, let us know if you die!
The best thing to do is to capture and take it to a secluded (FAR AWAY) area and let it go. Dont touch it or let it go if you think it's poisonous KILL it! It could carry SALMONELLA a very bad disease! Good Luck! :)
That sounds like a skink. They are like lizards, but are not. Leave it alone, they are not friendly.
Whatever it is, you should leave it completely alone, unless there are no free-roaming lizards in your part of the world and it is, therefore, a missing and endangered pet. Otherwise, it is in its own environment and should be left there.
Leave it alone.
If you want it to leave, squirt it with a hose.
Wildlife should be wild, just leave it alone.
There are only two dangerous(poison-wise)lizards on the EARTH,the Gila Monster and Beaded Lizard,they are in the desert southwest of North America,.and even if you are bitten unless you are allergic you will probably survive(But people also die from peanut allergies!).But it will hurt like hell.The only other lizard that can kill humans is the Komodo Dragon,and you would know about them if you live on the 3 or 4 islands where they live in the wild,since they get ten feet long.All lizards can-and will-bite you if you aggravate/frighten them by,say,picking them up(think of YOUR reaction if King Kong was real and picked you up-the size difference is similar-plus in the wild if an animal is "caught" by another animal the next thing is usually the caught animals painful death)but it will cause less harm the smaller it is."dangerous",if defined by biting,includes almost any creature--mammals,many insects(the Siafu,or driver ants(Africa),will kill sleeping humans by suffocation and infiltration of the lungs[in other words they climb in your nose and mouth and climb into your lungs in huge numbers until you can't breathe,then eat you from within),the brown recluse spider(the Americas) has a poison that can stay dormant for YEARS and then show up in any part of the body and cause it to rot off.Repeatedly.),birds AND reptiles.You are far more likely to harm the lizard by accidental injury and the inability to provide the right food and heat,etc.,Plus, many are protected by law,even if they are common, from capture by people,so you may be violating local laws if you keep it.You could conievably get salmonella from a lizard--and many other animals,like chickens--if it is infected,you handle it and do not wash thoroughly afterwardsIn VERY,VERY rare cases someone might be allergic to the lizards saliva but I've never heard of that being deadly.serpy gave you the info you need,good luck and be good to the lizard,they mean no harm to anyone.
it isn't venomous, if that's what you mean. there are only 2 species of venomous lizards in the world. but that doesn't mean it can't bite, so you should still watch out. if you can send me a pic. serpentsofroyalty@yahoo.com
let it be. let it live in the wild. could be a horny toad
Your description sounds EXACTLY like a skink (which ARE lizards by the way. they are the largest family of lizards on the planet!). Completely harmless, at that size I doubt a bite would even break the skin. There are SO many skink species it's impossible to say what kind it is for sure, but if you are curious you can find a good reptile field guide and see what's found in your area.
Probably not poisonous but it will still bite. HARD
like a few people said on here its a skink..
why do people answer questions that they no nothing about.. There is so much mis information on these sites its ridiculous.. if you don't know the answer to a question then DONT F ING ANSWER IT!
There are only 3 lizards in this world (currently) that can kill you from a bite. A Ghila Monster, Beaded Lizard, or a Komodo Dragon. I doubt it's any of the three.
