I was approached by three 'big boys', maybe 10 or 11 years old. They took the lizard off me, and were teasing me with it. Then one of them just pulled it in half... just for fun. I was really shocked, at that age I didn't understand how or why anybody could do such a thing.
I flew at the boy and got myself a good kicking into the bargain.
I went to school (7th-9th grade) with a guy who used to set common lizards on fire for fun. He bragged about it only once, I made sure of that.

Never really had any problems with the 'big boys', I've always been their size (often bigger) and I've never taken crap from any of them. A few have tried to push me around, but again, only once.
