Description
I lost my bearded dragon yesterday around 6pm in downtown Knoxville, near Market Square and the Market Street entrance. It's about 12-14 inches long, mostly bright orange with yellow speckles and a tiny white crescent-shaped mark behind the left eye. He's shy and quick, so please don't chase him if you see him—he tends to freeze and hide under planters. I adopted him after my grandmother passed away, so he means everything to me and I really need him back; last seen wandering near the coffee shop behind Market Square beside the bus stop.

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.
