| Common Five-lined Skink - Author's Picture |
"The image shows a Common Five-lined Skink (Plestiodon fasciatus), a fast-moving lizard found across eastern North America. Diet and Reproduction: Their diet primarily consists of invertebrates like spiders, crickets, and beetles, but they may also eat small frogs or other lizards. Defense Mechanism: Five-lined skinks can shed their tails when threatened, a defense mechanism that allows them to escape while the detached tail distracts predators. The tail will regenerate over time, though its appearance may differ from the original." Source: Adapted from Google Image Search and AI. Read more.
On Friday, we went to Walmart, and we had to go back on Saturday as well. On the way out of town, we had to stop at Petco. You have to drive across a parking lot to get back out on the highway. To do so, you have to pass by a Taco Bell, which is also located on that parking lot. As we did, some fool shot out of the Taco Bell parking lot, and I had to slam on the brakes to avoid hitting her. I'm almost positive that she did it on purpose. Some people are either idiots or despicable. Don't brake check anyone. Don't be a fool. If I had hit her, I would have lost my car for good.
