How can you identify reptiles from a photo?

Reptile identification depends on body shape, scale pattern, head shape, habitat, and behavior, not just color. **Important safety note: AI identification must not be used to decide whether a wild reptile is safe to approach or handle.**

AnimalDex saves reptile sightings as collectible field-guide entries, so each confirmed match improves your future recognition.

Workflow

Bagaimana cara kerjanya?

Step 1

Use a clear photo taken from a safe distance, then compare the suggested match against body length, head shape, limbs, shell, scale pattern, posture, and habitat.

Step 2

Add the reptile to your collection with notes about location and behavior so the sighting remains useful later.

Step 3

Eligible past Instagram finds can join the same Dex after you review species and a historical location.
