because you shouldn't take things out of the wild (in my opinion!). It knows how to feed and water itself. let him go, let him enjoy his life outside where he has a place to roam. You obviously don't know how to care for him, so it's for the best (no offence meant).

I'd tend to agree with O.K. I don't know where you're at, but if you've got baby lizards running around I'd have to guess it will survive outside. It has a much better chance on it's own than under your care if you don't even know what it is or how to look after it.
Take a picture of it and turn it loose.

Yea i agree. It could also have diseases and parasites that can be bad for him or if you have any other reptiles, for them. If your trying to keep it as a pet than it will probably need a lot of vet trips. Wild caught things are a bad way to go, but i wouldnt mind to see what it looks like

Personally, I think I'd get more enjoyment out of setting up a backyard lizard feeder and watching the little varmints come and go all day. That could make for some amusing photo ops!

Yeah you should let him go, and like WM said, if there is one running around in your garage then they are obviously doing well in the wild, why not let him live a happy life out there? PS What are you keeping him in / on?
