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.

Ah yes, the brown anole, l know them well here in Jax Fl. Our green one have all but disappeared since they moved in. I declare they breed faster than la cucaracha and there are days l go out and my yard alive with them.

I’ve always hoped to find anoles in our local plant nursery in Michigan, so far I’ve had no luck, possibly because they only have locally grown plants, or we are too far up north for them to survive long enough. It’s too bad Michigan doesn’t have more lizards, we only have the five lined skink.
Even though they’re invasive, at least the nursery gets free pest control!

I’ve got literally a million brown anoles on my property, I don’t know what their eating but it sure doesn’t appear to be pests. LOL

Haha! Probably all of the pollinators then 😂 It’s so funny how quickly invasives breed, especially compared to their native habitat. Are the anoles attracting predators to your property, or are they relatively safe?

A baby owl seem to enjoy them and a rarely appearing feral cat but other than those two, they are pretty safe.
