First off, don't forget to look below to
see the answer to last weeks mystery animal, and
to see a couple of pictures of this weeks!
Recently, my family visited some good friends of ours in
South Carolina for a few weeks. Not only did we have a lot of fun visiting them, we saw a lot of cool plants and animals there that we simply don't have up north! For some of you, many of these animals and plants will be routine and boring, but hopefully there will be something in here that you will find interesting! I think I am going to split this post up into at least a few different segments, with tomorrows post devoted entirely to the
Black Skimmer, a very interesting
bird that I had the good fortune to see hunt! So today I am going to talk about some of the interesting
reptiles and
amphibians we saw down there, and over the next few weeks we can take a look at some of the birds, fossils and other things we saw down there!
Due to the increased heat and humidity, coupled with less of a swing between the seasons (i.e. it rarely snows and drops below freezing), the south is an excellent place to see all sorts of reptiles and amphibians. We saw a number of
turtles and a
frog/toad or two when we were in the south, but what interested me more were the
lizards.

| A type of skink, but I have yet to ascertain its species, although I am almost certain its genus is that of Plestiodon |
And then, of course, there's the gators. The
American Alligator lives in the same states as the Carolina anole, as well as
Virginia,
Arkansas and
Oklahoma. While we did see a few in the wild, all of these shots (except for that of the gator footprint) were taken at a place called
Brookgreen Gardens, or at a restaurant called the Crab Shack.

| This is a picture of a gator footprint that I took. You can see three of the toes very well, making it look a lot like a theropod dinosaur track, but you can see the other two toes as little holes in the ground. |

| This picture, and all the rest, were taken at an awesome (both food- and entertainment-wise) restaurant on Tybee Island in Georgia called The Crab Shack. |

Unfortunately there are a lot of AIDS/Herpes denials on Herbal cures still out there. I did research on them after I was tested HIV/Herpes positive I was so worried am I going to die soon. I continue my search again on herbal remedy for Std, then I found lots of testimony on how Dr Itua Herbal Medicine Cured HIV/Aids, Herpes Virus,Copd, Hepatitis, Diabetes, On websites sharing their testimonies, which made much more sense to me. All the authors pronounce Dr Itua As a man with Good Heart, I pick interest in their testimonies and I contact him about my situation then he gave me procedure how it works, I proceed after one week he courier his Herbal Medicine to me and instruct me on how to drink it for two weeks to cure. I receive His Herbal Medicine so I drank it for two weeks as I was told then after 2 days I go for a test I found out I was cured from HIV/Aids & Herpes Virus, I pay homage to him 2 months ago to his country to celebrate with him on his African festival which he told me it usually happens every year. I know there are lots of (HIV)/Aids&Herpes Virus denials of Herbal Remedy movement the same few doctors and they represent a very small faction of the community. I could have died because I refused Natural Herbs Cures for so long, but luckily, by the grace of God I am alive to tell my story.
