Too bad there was a pre-filter; he would have been cooked and ready to eat with the 5,000+ volts on the electrostatic precipitator air cleaner.

Actually, lizard tastes quite good. Haven't had any since Belize, many, many years ago!!

Now if you could attach a cam to his head and send him through the ductwork, you might find a few more interesting things.
Seriously, looks like someone lost their pet.
