Animal Spotlight: Phillip, Caiman Lizard

Meet Phillip! He’s one of our northern Caiman lizards that reside in the Reptile & Amphibian House. They are native to the northern part of South America and are uniquely adapted to their environment to be good swimmers, climbers, and burrowers. A year ago, Phillip’s animal care team noticed swelling on the right side of his face. After further evaluation by our veterinary team and outside veterinarians, including Dr. McCoy, a board-certified veterinary dentist, it was discovered that he had cancer in his jaw. He had surgery last fall and recently got the clear to go back on exhibit with his friend, George.
