Pleistocene, Andes Mountains, Columbia Large vertebrates such as lizards are extremely rare to be found in ancient tree resin due to the fact that they are usually strong enough to escape. By examining the present fossil lizard (nearly 2 inches in length), who was trapped inside this clear honey-colored copal nugget we can hypothesize that perhaps it was nearly dead and partially scavenged, shortly before it fell in the sap flow. There are numerous other inclusions apparent such as insects including winged termites, ants, wasps, etc. Measuring 4 ¼ x 4 x ¾ in
