Nothing like this surprised me anymore. We live in a disposable society, and people have no problem extending that to living creatures as well. I just got a leopard gecko that some people brought to my store because their friend didn't want it and was going to see how long it took to starve to death!
When I was up north (in CT) I found a tokay gecko outside. It was in my neighbor's yard, he called me to ask if I'd lost a blue & orange lizard because he had one at his place (I was a known herp guy). Of course I'm thinking, blue & orange lizard? In CT? Not mine, but I'm curious...so I go there and there's the tokay. It was November and I guess he'd been out awhile, had a nasty URI and didn't make it 
When I used to have two iguanas (one was about 1 foot and half w/o tail the other was probably over two feet w/o the tail) we had a their big ass home built cage on wheels and put the whole thing outside during parts of the summer. One time the big one worked his way through the metal wiring and they got out. We broke down the cage thinking they were gone, and a couple weeks later I got a call from a friend who lived on the oppositive cove of the lake from me saying he caught my lizard.
Him and his friends saw the lizard up in a tree, caught it and then found out it was mine and I got him back.
Never found the smaller one though.
