| The five-lined ground skink is found throughout Florida in woods, grassy areas, and barrier islands. It is a type of lizard that is active during the day and feeds on insects, spiders, other lizards, and earthworms. When the weather turns cold, the five-lined ground skink will curl up inside a wet long to wait it out. | ||
