Monitor lizard's tail radiograph

An x-ray of the coiled tail of a lizard shows the many vertebrae and a bit of the scale pattern. A couple of toes on the left foot are visible in the lower right corner. This particular lizard is arboreal and likely uses its long tail for balance. I was the radiographer of this image.
