A Skink That Went for a Swim

A little Dussemier's Litter Skink had somehow ended up in the tank below when I looked down. Suprised how it ended up there, I went down with me camera to photograph the poor little guy. He couldn't run off anywhere and was hence standing on a floating tapioca leaf that fell into the water.

However, the skink did try to swim off when I came close with the cmaera.

In the end I had to catch him with my bare hands, wipe him dry and then release him away from the tank. I don't want to be rescueing them all the time, unless its a rare animal that'll give me a chance to photograph it.
