Fascinating Facts About the Frilled Lizard: Nature's Unique Reptile

The Frilled Lizard, native to the tropical regions of Northern Australia, is known for its smooth, scaly body and a striking big ruff frill that expands when threatened. This lizard has long legs and a lengthy tail, making it agile in its habitat filled with trees, sandy floors, and ponds. Its diet consists of bugs, small lizards, and small mammals, while it faces predators like dingoes and eagles. Laying around 15 eggs in a 1-2 feet deep hole, they take 3-4 months to hatch. Fun fact: the Frilled Lizard has been featured on coins and stamps!
