Podarcis muralis - Common Wall Lizard

Podarcis muralis - male

 

Hamilton County, Ohio

 

Several P. muralis were released into downtown Cincinnati, Ohio in the early 1950s (supposedly by the Lazarus family). They've thrived in the urban areas of Cincinnati and have manged to colonize surrounding Kentucky and Indiana. Pretty cool lizards - I honestly don't mind seeing them in the ghettos of Cincinnati....
