Default Ooh, ick! Sorry Mr(s) Anole!

Opened my front door and an anole ran in. Ran to get butterfly net a friend gave us to catch/release the anoles. Dog was sniffing curiously after the anole while it was running around the tiled entry way. Wouldn't go back out the door! Finally caught the little thing in the net, but in my haste, the edge of the rim caught its tail and cut it right off. Took it out the front door to release it, worried the dog would make a snack of the tail (can I say ICK again?!). Came back in to pick it up, and the tail WAS STILL THRASHING AROUND!

Ooh, ick! I know the tail regrows, but ick ick ick!

P.S. They're not a protected species, right?
