Southern Grass Skink
Pseudemoia entrecasteauxii
Southern Grass Skinks inhabit grassy woodlands, heath, and vegetated suburban edges in southeastern Australia, using logs, rocks, and leaf litter as cover. They bask in warm patches before hunting insects, spiders, and other small invertebrates on the ground. This species gives birth to live young rather than laying eggs, an adaptation useful in its cool-temperate range.
