    Did you know: there’s a mathematical formula that uses the length of a skinks toes and the length of its tail to determine how arboreal the species is?

    Also, skinks wanna be your friend!

            Regretfully I only have two skink facts. If you’d like, I can start making them up? Or replacing real facts with skinks?

            Did you know the Ancient Egyptians worshiped skinks (crocodiles) for the way they protect their young? And the temple in Skinkodopolis, priests would bejewel these skinks, and mummify them along with pets and servants.

      Yay! Did you know there’s a genus of skinks that have green blood?
