Little argentine tegu is growing up. Found her today, acting normally, with the end of her tail seems injured. Just wanted to get your opinions. Here are some pics.

From the pic, it looks to me that something was cutting off the circulation to the tip of his tail. It is possible that there was something like a human hair or a carpet fiber wrapped around? I know this can happen to lizard toes from time to time, so it's something to watch out for.

Hye there Enjoyswine . About the pic of his broken tail, i guess mayb it got stuck between the wooden cave tht i just got him during tht time .. he was climbing up & down the wood , then thgs happened . So afte the tail incident ,,i removed the wood away frm him , until he got bigger . I was so worried tht i took him immediatley rite afte someone frm ths group suggested d vet.. n i was lucky tht his tail has grown bck .. Nyways, tq for your advice . Really appreciate it .
