Presumably, the living lizard had no sense of the pictured circumstance’s synchronicity, let alone any awareness that a human passer-by might find it quirky or amusing.
By Madagascan standards, the pictured, living lizard is rather prosaic/ plain, as evidenced by a number of earlier posts.

Madagascan musical bonus
Thirty years ago my ears first encountered the guitarist known as D’Gary. (Ernest Randrianasolo, born 1961)
Within thirty seconds I knew I was listening to an uncommonly original, highly virtuosic and very sensitive musician.
Almost by definition, if a brilliant guitarist happens to be Madagascan, his or her international profile will be smaller than that enjoyed by any similarly gifted American, European, or Australian player.
That said, almost by definition, anyone who has listened closely to D’Gary knows that he is one of the world’s greatest acoustic guitarists.
This piece is from his 1997 album, Mbo Loza.
