Sphenodon punctatus
Sphenodon is an ancient survivor from the Juassic period - the age of dinosaurs and survives in limited numbers on some of New Zealands outlying islands where predators have been eliminated. Sex is determined by temperature so there are concerns that global warming might result in a much higher percentage of males.

Meet the Tuatara - Nature's Time Traveler!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we are transported back to the Jurassic period, where dinosaurs roamed and our little friend MAB-498, a Tuatara lizard, thrived. Hailing from Rainbow Springs in North Island, New Zealand, this ancient survivor called Sphenodon has managed to outlive its prehistoric counterparts. With limited numbers found on New Zealand's remote islands free of predators, the Tuatara is truly a living relic. But here's an interesting twist - their sex is determined by temperature! As global warming poses concerns for many species, there's worry that rising temperatures might skew the gender ratio towards males. But let's not dwell on worries; instead, let us marvel at this incredible creature. With its scaly skin and piercing eyes reminiscent of a dinosaur era long gone by, the Tuatara stands as a testament to resilience and adaptation. Mark Boulton beautifully captures this threatened reptile in all its glory through his lens. The vibrant colors of Rainbow Springs serve as a stunning backdrop for our time-traveling friend. So take a moment to appreciate nature's wonders with MAB-498 – an extraordinary reminder that even amidst modern times and changing climates, some creatures continue to defy extinction and inspire awe in every beholder.
