    No it's not a remake of the Goat's Don't Shave classic.

    It's harmless and protected by law. Pick it up and release it in a safe place. Also looks quite fat, may be pregnant. They give live birth.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viviparous_lizard

    Have you called crocodile Dundee?:p


    I never seen one of those in Ireland before.

    Edit: I see others say they are protected - What are they?

    "Crocodile"? Are you Captain Hook, by any chance?

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Make a handbag out of him. Nice present for your mother.

    Alternatively, keep him in a jar and bring him out to fight Megalon and Mothra every now and then. Make some good money that way.

    How many cm's is she dilated now?? Stay with her and hold her paw/leg, I'll boil the kettle, Nothingbetter2d will get the towels, Battered Mars Bar will help with her breathing and we're waiting on Deus to bring the whiskey:).

    They're cold blooded creatures and like to bask in the sun to warm up before they can become active. Place it somewhere sunny and safe.

    Also have a basin of hot water and some towels handy, you know like in the movies ;)

    Bad news I'm afraid:(

    She's now lying flat on her back with her legs in the air.
    I don't need Godzilla's gynaecologist to tell me that's not a good sign.

    Yep fraid so:mad:. I lifted her by the tail and spun her around a few times like you do with a newborn lamb. Unfortunately i accidentally let her slip out of my grasp and she flew out of my grasp into the recycling bin which coincidentally happened to be open at the time.
