A Tree Frog Treks camper meets an Alligator Lizard found in #sanfrancisco yesterday!

Alligator lizards are native to the west coast and use their long bodies and tails to move in a snake-like fashion through the undergrowth. Also like snakes, they shed their skins in a large piece instead of many small patches like most lizards. Very cool find!
