After prolonged efforts, Ecuadorian anole maestro Fernando Ayala-Varela succeeded in hatching out a baby horned anole. And break out the blue wrapping paper–it’s a boy! And lo and behold, answering a question we all had, the little fellows have little nubbly horns! Well done, Fernando!
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.
