Lizards and Dinos and Frogs

The wildlife on Guam is extraordinary, and quite exotic.

This guy was found DOA on the bathroom floor.



Dinosaurs! I don't know why but there are two places on the island that have semi-life size dinosuars. Just sitting there. These were on someones yard, but to be fair it did look like some kind of auto garage / house, so its not like these are glorified lawn ornaments, even though they are.



And one of the ugliest, meanest and biggest frogs ever. This guy weighed at least seven pounds, no kidding. When it rains they come out in droves, and just hippity hop around the roads. You see alot that look exactly like this, just thinner (ie FLAT). We almost hit this guy twice, once passing him, and the 2nd time going back so Christine could see and take a picture. But we let him live to be squished another day. We also had one of these jumping around our porch tonight.

Adam, do you remember going out after dark, with Bubba and hunting bull frogs just like this one to race in the dance hall of the Greenhorn Dude Ranch in Quincy? You could only catch them at night. Yours won the race!!!

Christines the one taking the pictures! And she didn't like how she looked in front of the dinos so we will have to take some other pictures for the blog.
