Since we're looking at an infinite world of variety or almost infinite in, uh, in amphibians, what do you think is the most fascinating thing or fascinating amphibian, uh, Geoff?

So an amphibian's an animal that has a life that spans both water and land.

They do a lot of things people don't expect them to do.

Like I think we think of key characteristics of amphibians, a lot of people might know about their permeable skins.

You mentioned them being slippery, right? But a lot of people may also think, oh, all amphibians have this incredible life cycle where they, uh, have two stages.

They have an aquatic tadpole, and then they metamorphose into a terrestrial adult.

But that's just one type of frog that does that.

Where did it come from, if that's not a dumb question, and how's it being spread?

And that truck can be environmentally conditioned, so if we need to, we can also have lorries that are temperature-controlled throughout the moves for them going into their new home in Reading.

And now we've come to the part of the collection that I help look after.

So the monitor lizard in front of me is probably about a meter and a half in length.

Look down here.

This is the original display plaque.

So you can see that it says, "Water monitor from Keta in the Malay Peninsula, 1895." And so that tells me that this would've been one of our display specimens in South Kensington shortly after it opened in the late 1800s.

This specimen was sitting there, and it is still here with us today and still educating people about the natural world.

That's one of the, the beautiful things about this job.
