Bearded dragon missing near Target, Huntsville
Description
I lost my bearded dragon yesterday around 3pm near the Target on University Drive in Huntsville. It's about 16 inches long from snout to tail, tan with orange stripes along the back, and it has a small blue patch on the left leg and a tiny notch at the tail tip. I keep it in a 40-gallon enclosure with a black lid; the enclosure has a sticker from Sun Valley Reptiles on the side. This little guy is more than a pet—he's a constant in my daily routine and I'm really worried about him. If you saw him wandering near the Target parking lot or the adjacent shopping center, please message me—I'd be grateful to get him back.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
