VivaristicA marvel of the rainforest treetops; the Green Thornytail Iguana (Uracentron azureum). This species is endemic to part of the Guiana shield in the upper part of the Amazon, Suriname and French Guiana. They are rarely seen as they live mainly high up the trees.

Jane Adams<p>Any <a href="https://vis.social/tags/herpetologist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>herpetologist</span></a> folks out there have i.d. ideas for this lil brownie? Spotted in Boston, very confrontational, lurching out to bite quickly, not very scared, which was surprising. Didn't get a good look at its belly but didn't look red. It's about 90°F here today which is about the hottest it usually gets.

Gabriel Ugueto<p>Ok, let me try this post as an <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/introduction" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>introduction</span></a> here on Mastodon. Hi everyone, I am Gabriel Ugueto and I am a professional <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/artist" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>artist</span></a> who creates <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/paleoart" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>paleoart</span></a> and <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/sciart" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>sciart</span></a> who specializes in illustrating both <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/extinct" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>extinct</span></a> and <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/extant" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>extant</span></a> tetrapods. Here are a few recent examples of my work.<br />I am also a <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/herpetologist" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>herpetologist</span></a> so I probably will be sharing a lot of stuff here about <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/amphibians" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>amphibians</span></a> <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/reptiles" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>reptiles</span></a>, and yes the latter includes <a href="https://sauropods.win/tags/birds" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>birds</span></a> 😋<br />Have a bit of patience with me while I figure Mastodon out</p>
