Notes
Four ID'd in an hour, but there were a number of other lizards that were probably fringe-toed as well but could not be positively ID'd. Only one vouchered. One unvouchered fringe-toed lizard fled on sight at a distance that was paced off to be over 160' away. Area is within city limits and is heavily frequented by dirt bikes and other off-road vehicles, which has dramatically reshaped many of the dunes.
