The tweet-o-sphere is full of news that there was some sort of anole question on Jeopardy late last week, and that apparently none of the contestants got the answer. But I can’t find any specific online. Does anyone have the inside skinny?

I had just changed the channel to see a green anole with dewlap on display, but I didn’t hear the exact “answer”. The contestants just stood there with blank expressions as Alex said “What is an anole?”
