These are cold blooded creatures who adapt to the environmental conditions. Last December I worked at PGA Tour Q-school at Orange County National. Most days we had a delay from frost and cold. The anoles survived that well. They just moved a little slower. OK a lot slower. It was almost comical to see them barely crawling along.
One year in CA, we had an especially cold spell and the iguanas were falling asleep in the trees because their metabolism slows down in cold. Some even fell out of the trees asleep. They survived also.
