Wild Lizard Chase
Land of sand
Keeping the team and the highly sensitive HD camera equipment going
amidst the heat, flies, and wind-whipped sand was a challenge, but
also fun—sort of. By the end of our stay we had red sand in
every pore and in every bit of equipment, had swallowed more bush
flies than we could count, and were hanging out for a really long
shower. But it was a trip none of us will forget. Here, the red sand
behaves for once as Dr. Pianka and his field assistant Stephen
Goodyear check a pit trap.
