"Frustrated that a neighbor’s kid kept on landing in her front yard, Edna Jester decided that she wasn’t going to give it back - so the neighbor called the police on her!"

ted......
it sounds more like it proves evolution than creationism.
this lizard evolved so that it could more easily move in the sand by losing its legs. As meghan said before when you hold this lizard you can feel the vestigal leg. If the snake in the garden of eden's legs simply fell off why is there still a growth on the lizard where the legs used to be? ...Perhaps its because evolution hasnt completely gotten rid of this appendage in this lizard. I'm sure if we traced this lizard in the fossil record.....I doubt it would show that suddenly around the time the bible says adam and eve existed this animal just LOST its legs. It would be a slow evolution. The legs getting smaller and smaller over many many many years. Fossil records would show this.

This is a lizard,. just because they named it in the genus bachia...
the family above that is gymnophthalmidae (say that 10 x fast)
wiki sez:
" Gymnophthalmidae is a family of lizards, sometimes known as spectacled lizards or microteiids.

They are called 'spectacled' because of their transparent lower eyelids, so they can still see with closed eyes. The eyelids are not fixed, like most geckos and all snakes. These lizards live in a wide variety of habitats, from desert to mountain to rain forest, throughout Central America and South America. Spectacled lizards are related with the Teiidae, but they look like skinks; reduced limbs and smooth scales, some species have no limbs at all. They eat mostly insects and other invertebrates, all species are oviparous."

does this explain things?
