If you can't find it you're probably just not finding it. They scurry around all over the temple and can also be found on the ground. Some of them are hard to find and shoot because they almost never stop moving when you see them.

You can shoot it from the ground but it is very hard to find. In the video it's the first lizard crawling along the rock wall he runs past.

Alright, thanks. Another thing; I just unlocked the Lizard Detection Stone, and activated it, but how does it actually work? Does it somehow let you know when you're near a lizard? Or are they supposed to appear on my map? Coz my map has no lizard marks on it...

They appear on your map but you have to be relatively close to the lizard for it to show up. It has a range of about 1 grid square in all directions.

I see. Thanks a lot. I guess I'll stick to the IGN map for general locations, and pinpoint them with the Stone. Cheers.

it's definitely not there, I've spent ages looking on and around the temple and haven't had any trouble with other lizards. I'm hoping that I actually killed it and forgot to mark it off my list. I don't think I did but I'll carry on in the hope that I did and see if the trophy pops after getting the rest.

I was able to find the 3 lizards at f-8 at the save spot but I can't find this one

F-8: East of the gate leading to Colossus 16, crawling along the rock wall.

This is the last one I need and I can't find it do I need to start over?

[nuke4U]

He is actually on the huge rock wall WEST of the gate(guide is wrong here), and not so close to it too.

Got a question: do we have to EAT all the tails in order to get the trophy cuz I killed a lizard with my flash arrow near the cliff and the tail felt on a ledge where I could reach but not come back so I left it there. I know the trophy description says KILL all lizards but I'd just like to be sure before to go further. And what if I took it then died down the cliff...would it register???

[Villain]

Just got the lizard trophy. I saved it like the day before yesterday, really desperate because I thought I only needed one or 2. Got really lucky for finding it so quick. Now to plat it!

When the path turns back to the right (east) and opens up, there should be a rock wall on the right and a cliff on the left. The lizard should be hanging out below on this cliff. I had to follow the cliff down and double back to find it.

Can't find this.It's simply an hour I'm going around but I can't find it.

I had no problem with this one whatsoever. I approached this one from the east, after getting the lizards at E7. Before you go near the path leading to the save temple, ride due west across the flat land enclosed by cliffs, but look south. You should see an unusually dark alcove in the cliff, around the bottom of the lizard mark (assuming you have the Stone). It's crawling in that alcove.

I just got this trophy. I dunno what I would have done if the trophy hadn't popped when I killed the 3 lizards at the Broken Seal, but at least now I'm one step closer to platinum!
