GBIFID: 4936848648; Occurrence Remarks: Western red-tailed skink (A subspecies of Gilberts skinks) Carrizo Plain This was a very cool find. I saw something move out of the corner of my eye and saw this guy come from under a small rock ledge. Initially, I just saw the stripes and though it was a small snake but then he came out and I knew it was some type of skink. I had to research it when I got back and this is a juvenile western red-tailed skink. He is missing the end of his tail. Like most lizards and skinks, they can release part of their tail when threatened or to distract potential predators.
