Wow, I knew I had eastern fence lizards around my house (I'm in TN), but I never would've guessed the western variety is named exactly the same! I wonder if the eastern variety has similar results

Side tangent, looking up a picture of eastern fence lizard seems to also show results for western fence lizards TITLED as eastern fence lizards since according to google the primary difference between them is the color the males have on their belly (blue being western, green being eastern)
