Here’s one almost no one out there has ever seen. What is it?
Professor of Biology and Director of the Living Earth Collaborative at Washington University in Saint Louis. I've spent my entire professional career studying anoles and have discovered that the more I learn about anoles, the more I realize I don't know.

My best guess is Anolis eugenegrahami.

Anolis barkerii

I’ve certainly never seen it! Also, and this is a serious question, shouldn’t the caption read: “…almost no one out there has ever seen…”? (I.e., not “no one out there have ever….”)

It looks like Anolis eugenegrahami to me,so I’d have to make that my guess.

One of my favotrites A. eugenegrahami from Haiti.
Almost extinct.
should be in a captivety program or it will be gone.

You have a point there.
Not being large and furry, anoles aren’t much in fashion in zoo’s ( in Europe at least) but there are some species that could use some supporting protection by captive breeding. I ‘m afraid however that isn’t something zoo’s either will do nor have the capacities to do.
