(That's the caption from one of my favorite Far Side cartoons, spoken by an alligator sitting in the witness chair in a courtroom.)
This handsome fellow, who is presumed innocent until proven otherwise, is a shingleback lizard at the Reptile Center in Alice Springs.
This wasn't on our itinerary but we had extra time, and I'm glad as I would probably never have gone otherwise and it turned out to be a lot of fun.
We got to hold or touch several of the non-lethal reptiles in residence, including an amiable olive python named Barry.
