Caimans and lizards look like close relatives, but appearances can be deceiving. Both are reptiles, yet their evolutionary paths separated roughly 250 million years ago.
In fact, a caiman is more closely related to a bird than to a lizard.
Yacare Caiman: Brazil (Twice the teeth, thanks to the reflection.)
Collard Lizard: Petrified Forest, Arizona (The forest turned to stone. The lizard decided to pose on it)
Greater earless lizard, Arizona (All dressed up, with nothing to listen to)
Green Basilisk lizard, Costa Rica
also called, the Jesus Christ Lizard because walking on water is impressive,
