Alligator lizard is giving its best anti-predator defense against this hungry striped racer. "They tumbled and struggled for about a minute or two after I came across them on the road, but after a car passed by and spooked them, they released. The snake hurried into the bushes and the lizard escaped, leaving behind his tail. I was able to (photograph) both hurrying away." Photo and observation by B. Ehrhardt.
