The intent and meaning is well understood, but lizards are reptiles, and 
generally considered non-slimy. If you must go with a slimy vertibrate, 
you probably need something like a salimander, otherwise slugs are just 
fine and slimy, with the advantage of not having _any_ backbone (make no 
bones about THAT!)

sorry for being mildly pendantic. Otherwise, this would be longer and 
tackle "slithering" lizards also.
