The brown anole is thought to be responsible for a dramatic decline of previously stable urban and rural populations of the green anole, the only anole native to the United States. Green anoles often undergo a habitat shift and disappear within a few years after brown anole arrival. The two species are similar in size and overlap considerably in their diets, suggesting dietary resource competition. Predation on green anole hatchlings has also been demonstrated, suggesting that an ecological double-whammy termed "intra-guild predation" (competitors that also eat each other) might better describe the interaction.

i am trying to get back our native lizard.
