a friend spotted this. he's 95% sure it's a snake despite the odd shape, although possible it could have been a lizard. looking for help ID'ing what type it is. thanks!

not at all, thank you!
I'm editing the scientific name for you. I hope you don't mind.
absolutely, i think i've got it updated correctly. if there is any other information that would be helpful to add, just let me know. thank again
So pleased for you landonq. It's something new for me as I've never seen such an interesting lizard before now. So, thanks ! Now that you have a scientific name, could you please edit your spotting and type the name in the appropriate box. Thanks.
thanks Leuba! that definitely seems to match. my friend reviewed his moving photos after your ID suggestion and it does definitely have legs and feet for even more confirmation.
Nice spotting !
