Bearded dragon missing near Miracle Mile
Description
I lost my bearded dragon yesterday around 3pm. He's about 12 inches long from head to tail, with a sandy tan body and vivid orange markings along his spine. There's a tiny blue dot near his left nostril and a slightly crooked tail tip from a past molt. He was last seen near the Miracle Mile shopping district on Pacific Ave, around the Trader Joe's parking lot between Main and Stanislaus streets in Stockton. This little guy means a lot to me—he's helped me through tough days, and I'm really worried he wandered off. If you spot him, send me a message and I'll come grab him quickly.

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.
