I hate to tell you this, but if the lizard was wild it’ll probably die no matter what you do. Wild lizards have a HARD time copeing with staying trapped in a tank. They usually refuse to eat and end up dieing of the parasites that harbor in their body and starvation. So ’house training’ a wild lizard is REAL hard.

If you find a herp vet in the area and take your newly found lizard there, they can probably tell you the type of lizard and - if you ask - take it off your hands.

Question, though. Why in the world would you ask this after you starved it for a ’few months’? A week or two, sure. But MONTHS!?
