I am more worried about the lizards in Ukraine that are stress eating because of a war precipitated by our military industrial complex there.

And how much money was wasted weighing lizards? They could have weighed Antony Fauci and saved a lot of money.

212 sq miles ===135,680 acres.

WHO is demanding ‘research’ on lizards near a military base???

This is another attempt to bankrupt the USA.

Not to worry. Next week, it’ll be attributed to “climate change”. The week after that, it’ll be due to “lack of gun control”. And sooner or later, it’ll be because we’re not giving enough attention to tranny lizards. Not even close to kidding.

Shutter the base immediately! Snowflake stressed lizards have rights.

But seriously, chit can these researchers and cut all their funding for wasting tax dollars on something so hideously inconsequential.

Psychological stress on lizards because helicopters and jets are loud. We’ve needed lizard psychologists for a while. Too bad the best ones opt for gender studies and art appreciation.

I have this mental picture of a lizard sitting on the couch with a spoon and a carton of ice cream, binge watching some stupid TV show.

Did anybody else think this was about our reptilian alien overlords that the military is working with?

Oh, No! Fat Lizards?!?!?

Call me when they stop the sounding test off of the New England coast for counter-productive windmill siting. Given that its killing whales.

The solution to this is obvious. Lizard ear muffs.

Must be a LOT of crickets and other food items around that base to allow these whiptail lizards to up their consumption. It’s interesting to find out that noise increases their appetite. Whiptails are very interesting lizards, with dog-like hunting behaviors. I have kept several species of them and always found them interesting pets. Some of the species have males and females, and other species are parthenogenic (all female), being able to reproduce without males.

These uncommon reptiles, called Colorado checkered whiptails, are engaging in compensatory feeding behaviors when low-flying Apache, Chinook and Blackhawk helicopters — and sometimes F-16 fighter jets — swoop over their habitat, according to the study, published on Wednesday in Frontiers in Amphibian and Reptile Science.

...

Army pilots flew over a 0.02-square-mile portion of the base known as “Training Area 55” at pre-selected times for three days in June 2021, after abstaining from doing so earlier in the week, according to the study.

Yeah, nah!

I live right next to Ft. Carson.

As the article says, they flew three days out of the entire month of June. That sounds about right.

The truth is that military flights over and around Ft. Carson are rare. So rare, I've never seen an F-16 or any other military jet fly over the area, much less, "swoop."
