Anolis umbrivagus — a small arboreal lizard from the genus of anoles. It inhabits shady tropical forests of South America and skillfully climbs trees.
Anolis umbrivagus differs from other anoles by its preference for shaded areas of the forest and its special coloration. It helps the forest by eating insects and serving as food for snakes and birds.
Legendary longevity: over 100 years. Galapagos tortoises, Greenland sharks, ocean quahogs celebrate with family once every 4 years
