hahaha.

If you come to Eugene area make sure you check out Fern Ridge walking path, garter snakes are everywhere. . (But not in winter)
I've also seen alligator lizards, western fence lizards, gopher snakes, and blue tailed skinks in Oregon. Depending what part of the state you go to, there's a few places near Medford (Table rock and Roxy Ann hill are good hiking areas)) and Grants Pass (Cathedral Hills is where I saw a lot of the skinks) I have yet to check out Portland area. Hope this helps a little, Jen

where did you find the alligator lizards? i knew they where here but not sure exactly where?

I've seen them around in Southern Oregon, it was in Eagle Point. If you go look around by Rogue River they're around, just gotta turn over some logs and stuff. It's also a great place to lok for agates and jasper. This is one I caught in Eagle point by Dodge bridge... Sorry not the greatest pics

i'll have to go take a look. thank you for the kind post. unlike the other smart eleck remarks from the other people.
