I had a keen interest in my childhood catching lizards, snakes etc. My
father took an especially keen interest in a snake which he thought to be
a cottonmouth - and he very unceremoniously cut off it's head with a
knife. But lizards do present a special challenge in that they are
generally extremely fast - and anyone who can consistantly catch them
without injuring them has a special talent.

I too catch tiny lizards when I was growing up (in Hong Kong). They are the
type that drops their tails when caught. No luck with toads, flies, snake
(ha ha), or anything else though. Now I repent for my sins.
ObOM: now I just take pictures of lizards and salamanders with my OM. Found
some huge ones in the Smoky Mtns in TN. We have tiny black salamanders
around our house.
