"blue-headed agame is what the guide said..."
Found on a tree just outside the store in Skukuza rest camp.
ID based on habitat, bridge across wooded stream. Carcass very degraded, scalation & size (c. 1m) inconclusive, certainly fits hoplogaster, but also possibly natalensis occidentalis, natalensis natalensis or even semivariegatus.
Peeled off road surface and placed on verge to spare scavenging species the same fate.
In a Baobab tree. A group with about 10 indivi
