Description:

A baby legless lizard - more specifically, a legless gecko. The Pygopodidae ( aka snake-lizards, or flap-footed lizards ) have no fore limbs at all, but they do possess vestigial hind limbs in the form of small, flattened flaps. They can also squeak, and hear tones an octave above the range of a piano.Fraser's Delma is native to SW Australia - this one is just a baby, since the adults can be two feet long.Building sub-development near bushland, Aubin Grove, Perth
