Grand Cayman curly-tailed lizard (Leiocephalus carinatus varius)
The Grand Cayman curly-tailed lizard (Leiocephalus carinatus varius), also known as the “lion lizard” is a common sight on Grand Cayman. Originally found mainly along isolated beach areas, this lizard can now be found on developed sites on rocks and concrete ground where it basks in the sun. It can be recognised by its characteristic curly tail -often arched over its back.
The curly-tailed lizard is ‘omnivorous’ which means it has a broad diet, feeding on vegetation (mainly flowers), insects and other lizards.
