Reading about green anole lizards the Wikipedia page wrongly limits them to coastal Texas and as far north as Hill Country. I live in the Dallas area and they are plentiful here.

Also since I'm not anywhere near an expert on these things I'd prefer someone else edit as the other claims in the distribution are also likely in error.

"Distribution and habitat[edit] This species is native to North America, where it is found mainly in the subtropical southeastern parts of the continent. Anoles are most abundant on the Atlantic Coastal Plains in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Florida, and on the Gulf Coast in Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas, where they extend inland as far as Texas Hill Country … [3]
