In addition to panting, lizards move from sunny perches into shade.
However, this means they lose time for catching prey, defending territory, or finding mates. Panting allows them to stay out longer.
It does come with some potential trade-offs. Panting is a form of evaporative cooling.

Tonight’s challenge species is the western whiptail lizard (📸 @agoadesq.bsky.social ). And while you won’t find western whiptails in Michigan, #FindThatLizard has never just been about one species or one place.

Lizards pant to cool themselves off when temperatures get too high!
All animals need ways to cool down, lizards included, because they can overheat. Humans sweat, birds bathe or swim, and pigs roll in mud. So it makes sense that lizards would have a cooling strategy.

Last weekend, I went to Big Bear with some friends. Although it’s getting to the end of lizard season, I was hoping to get a few #FindThatLizard photos. I knew if nothing else, the western fence lizard Sceloporus occidentalis wouldn’t disappoint me.

Side-blotched lizards rely more on sight than smell when hunting their prey, finding mates, and getting other environmental cues.

Hi, I'm Earyn, and I'm a lizard scientist! I created a game to teach people about lizards and increase the representation of Black women as herpetologists. #findthatlizard is a Where's Waldo-esque game where there is a lizard camouflaged in its environment. Your challenge is to find it. Will you? 🦎

Inglewood keeps trading trees for billboards, and it's not just affecting us. This week, I found a freshly hatched western fence lizard in my office and thought about how, when we pave over green space, we take shelter from everyone.
