Aditya Permana, a professional photographer in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, recently captured this once-in-a-lifetime photo of a forest dragon lizard that looks like it’s playing a guitar!
The photographer insisted that he did not manipulate the lizard, telling the Dailymail that he “did not directly photograph the lizard at first, until the lizards feel calm and comfortable around me. I noticed it looked like it was playing a guitar – and it didn’t move at all.“

What a shame.....To Admin please don't post stupid photos like this in future.
This animal is not in a natural position! He was drugged or cools or killed! You are not a photographer, but a puppeteer!
"The photographer says the lizard wound up like this on his own" *cough cough, I bet he also plays chess in his spare time.
These really anger me! They are stressing the lizard until it enters into ‘tonic immobilisation’ a defensive behaviour and renders the animal immobile whilst threatened. The photographers then pose them for photographs and are regularly ‘click bait’ on social media. Please don’t promote these morons and animal abusers.
At first i don't believe these pictures. Secondly, on reading the photographer's comments, i am sure this is staged. A dead liz made to pose
If it was dead you would not be able to move it’s arms /legs or head as it would be stiff as a board.. ✌🏽😉🦎
