The lizard was completely still for a long time, so that I could hardly believe it wasn’t a toy. Then it moved a little bit. So I filmed the creature, just to make sure that her movement wasn’t just an optical illusion. Indeed, if you are patient, you may see her tilt hear head or flap its neck wattles a tiny bit.

ArmadilloCon is an annual speculative fiction convention in Austin, Texas, USA.
