Lifespan/Longevity
Lifespans of eastern fence lizards are not well understood, but researchers believe that they can live for more than 5 years, possibly averaging ages of 4 years. However, the majority of eastern fence lizards probably die soon after hatching.
Range lifespan
Status: captivity: 5 (high) years.
Average lifespan
