| Other regionally endemic species that may be found are the mountain chicken, which is actually a type of frog, and the rare galliwasp, which is half-snake, half-lizard. |
| Sloane described and illustrated one of these, the great galliwasp, which later became extinct. |
| A galliwasp isn't as lethal as legend suggests. |
| The galliwasp is also killed by dogs, cats and mongooses, and by people who mistakenly consider it to be venomous. |
| In 1956, Cousens reported that a Jamaican giant galliwasp had not been collected in over one hundred years. |
