They aren't very tall, but their bodies (not including tail) can grown up to 5 or 6 ft. long and they can run pretty fast once they get warmed up. Because they are cold-blooded, in the mornings they just lie around soaking in the sun, then, once they are warm, they hunt in the afternoons. Of course, we visited in the morning.
