Anoles (Anolis spp.) are attractive, interesting lizards that make great pets for both novice and advanced keepers alike. Many become quite tame over time, and most are small enough that it is easy to provide them with spacious, visually appealing habitats, in which they'll display a number of unique behaviors as they go about their daily lives. Additionally, most anoles are quite affordable, which makes them an ideal choice for those who are interesting in trying their hand at reptile husbandry, without making a huge financial investment.

But while they are relatively easy animals to care for, keepers must still learn all they can about the biology, behavior and natural history of anoles to have a good chance at successful maintenance. Inside, you will find information about these subjects, as well as the basic techniques keepers use to keep their anoles healthy and happy.

The author, Ben Team, is an environmental educator and author with over 16 years of professional reptile-keeping experience. Ben currently maintains www.FootstepsInTheForest.com, where he shares information, narration and observations of the natural world. When not writing about plants, animals and habitats, Ben enjoys spending time with his beautiful wife.
