    @ehproque Monkeytail skinks live in large extended families - typically an adult pair and their young of up to 4 years of age (though most leave home at about age 1 - some stick around for longer, for some reason). It's not unusual that there are two adult pairs, in which case it's usually two siblings and their partners. They will adopt orphaned young, and if a family member goes missing, the entire group will actually start what appears to be a coordinated search!

    Lizards are great.

    (and virtually everything we know about their surprising social lives and cognitive faculties has been learned within the last 20 years.)
