Another Western Fence Lizard, taken 2 days ago.
The tails usually make up more than half of the total body length; this one appears to be regrowing its tail.
When threatened by a predator or even when merely startled, these lizards can detach the tail, leaving it to twist and writhe. Meanwhile the lizard has a chance to scurry to safety.

Don't blame me - I didn't vote for him!
