Description: San Esteban Island Chuckwalla Resolved Heloderma horridum Sauromalus, Philadelphia Zoo Picture of an Mexican beaded lizard (Heloderma horridum en ). Picture taken at and identified by the Philadelphia Zoo. This is not Heloderma horridum. The Species is a Sauromalus. See discussion Wikipedia Germany (WP-Germany,Google Sauromalus]). Please examine the picture data. --S.Didam 09:03, 28 May 2007 (UTC) This was positively identified by the philadelphia zoo via the display information. The species and an image of this animal were shown on the display and that was used for this image. I can't upload the display because it would be a copyright violation. -- Ram-Man 15:15, 28 May 2007 (UTC) OK! Thanks for answer. --S.Didam 19:06, 28 May 2007 (UTC) He's right, this is not a Mexican Beaded Lizard, this is a San Esteban Island Chuckwalla. The zoo might have been reusing the cage or outright lying to its guests...but if that's what the sign said, it was 100% incorrect.--Mike Searson (talk) 04:54, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
