The first time I tried to let my colombian free roam (she was maybe 15" at the time) she got scared and took off on two legs across my living room. It was quite amusing. :lol:

That's awesome. Mine have never done it, but I'm sure they could.

 

[VARNYARD]

Mine are way too lazy for that.

 

[VARNYARD]

Has anyone had a captive tegu do this? I have never seen mine do it.

My tegu did it once and only once. He was free roaming with me in the hall and for some reason he kept standing up at the wall. I thought he had finished standing because he walked away from it, but out of nowhere he ran like the wind back towards it on two legs. He never did get up that wall, lol.

Wow! I'm not about to dispute that statement.

 

[angelrose]

lmao, I would have been so busy laughing that I would get bit.

(not funny being provoked tho)

 

[VARNYARD]

Bump, just for you guys that have not seen this.

 

[ObsessionDragons]

OMG...that's almost as funny as watching a frillie running on two legs!

Great video, gave me a good laugh!

Here is another great picture I found on the net, look how this tegu has both front legs back when he is running, kinda makes you wonder about T-Rex:
