  • The mating rituals of lizards in the southwest.

  • Ah, yes.

  • So there is a special kind of lizard in New Mexico.

  • And all of the lizards there have a mating ritual

  • Women lizards.

  • Yeah, just-- what do you think, tWitch?

  • I'm going to have to go with false, Ellen.

  • I don't know if I believe that.

  • Well, that's because you don't want it to be true.

  • That you feel--

  • to be no babies in the world.
