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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by Mark Boulton, we are introduced to the incredible world of the Tuatara lizard. With its majestic head held high, adorned with intricate patterns and vibrant colors, this prehistoric relic takes us on a journey back to the Jurassic period. Hailing from New Zealand's outlying islands, where predators have been eliminated, these ancient survivors defy all odds. But here's a twist - their sex is determined by temperature! As concerns rise about global warming, there's a worry that rising temperatures might tip the scales towards an overwhelming majority of males in their population. With its long lifespan and unique characteristics, the Tuatara stands as a living fossil among us. Its presence reminds us of our planet's rich history and delicate balance. This threatened reptile not only captures our hearts but also serves as an important symbol for conservation efforts worldwide. Rainbow Springs North Island provides a picturesque backdrop for this extraordinary creature. The lush greenery surrounding it reflects nature at its finest – untouched and thriving. So let your imagination run wild as you gaze into those mesmerizing eyes and imagine what secrets lie within this timeless face. Let this print transport you to another era while reminding us of our responsibility to protect Earth's precious wildlife treasures like the Tuatara lizard!
