Anoles

/əˈnoʊlz/ noun

Definition

Plural of anole; multiple small, color-changing lizards from the Americas.

Etymology

From 'anole' + '-s' (standard English plural).

Kelly Says

Florida's anole population exploded as a side effect of the pet trade, and now native green anoles fight invasive brown anoles for territory—it's a real-time invasion story happening in backyards across the southeastern United States.
