My mokomoko -Lydia (rua mano mā rua tekau)

Kia ora e te whanau, last week my uncle  found a mokomoko, if you do not know what a mokomoko is it is like a big lizard but a miniature kind, and are in the family of Scincidae, Scincidae is one of the most diverse families of  mokomokos (lizards).
So, what i have heard is if you find a mokomoko it means good luck or something similar.
Then the next day my uncle found another one so i put with the other on to be honest they had no hesitation what so ever! They were just hauangi and whakaāio with each other. But then  i played with them and they just ran away but i knew i had to let them go anyway because ehara ko au tētahi tāngata kaha nei ki te tiaki i tētahi mokomoko which means i am not capable to look after a mokomoko. Anyways here some photos!
