No, blue-tailed skinks are not endangered, but blue-tailed mole skinks are. These are a limited area variety, and are not the common blue-tailed skink that seem to be everywhere here around my house in Missouri.
yes they do
no, and they dont bite, either.
When talking about common five lined skinks; yes.
In Southern states. Everywhere warm.
Thats what I want to kno! Do they?
No, they are not, although many people seem to think these lizards are dangerous. The most common skinks in South Carolina are the blue-tailed, five-lined, and broadhead skinks. Many people mistakenly call them "scorpions," and believe their sting is venomous, but herpetologists say that is not true.
no

No, they are not venomous. In fact, they make very good pets.
