From her earliest childhood, Anna Yeoman loved New Zealand's wildlife and wild landscapes.
Five years ago she began volunteering at Mokomoko Dryland Sanctuary in Central Otago, and fell in love with lizards.
Aotearoa is home to some of the most diverse and fascinating lizards on the planet: some camouflaged and hard to spot; some incredibly brightly coloured; some living in alpine areas, and others in seabird burrows.
Anna Yeoman began writing about geckos and skinks for magazines including New Zealand Geographic and North & South.
She's now a ranger at Mokomoko Dryland Sanctuary and has published a book about the lizards she loves so much.
