We used pit trapping to try and catch a lizard or a frog. I will tell you the process on how to prepare a pit trap. You dig a hole and put a bucket in it and then camouflage it. That is probably why we didn't catch anything. If pit trap is successful lizards or some animal will come and fall into it.
Small lizards live under logs and rocks.
Big lizards live in trees or caves. Some lizards come out at day and some at night and some all day. The lizard is very important to members of the rain forest. They are important because people and other types of predators eat them. The Chinese like to eat the monitor lizard because they think that if they eat certain parts of the lizard something special will happen to them.
