Salamander escapes owner in Kawasaki
The Yomiuri Shimbun
A 60-centimeter-long salamander was found on a street in Kawasaki at about 7 a.m. Saturday and handed over to police.
The salamander was returned to a 40-year-old company executive, who told police at a police box in the area Saturday night that the animal could be a pet that he had lost....
YOKOHAMA--A 45-centimeter-long iguana was found in a private garden in Minami Ward, Yokohama, at about 11:30 a.m. Saturday.
The owner of the house, 38, captured the reptile and brought it to police as a lost and found item.
It would seem that there are signs of an epidemic of stupid pet owners in the Tokyo area.
