Ooo really good one! #FoundThatLizard
When I first started #FindThatLizard, it was a way to engage with people virtually because I lacked the resources and know-how to bring people together in person.

Do lizards see color, what do we know about their vision?
I mean... they know where to put themselves so they blend in

I #FoundThatLizard in the 2nd picture, but can I say how fun it sounds to sculpt lizards out of clay after a lizard hike? 🫠
Can you #FindThatLizard ?
Last weekend's Lizard Art Walk was soooo much fun! During the event, I take folks on a short hike, and then we sculpt lizards out of clay. We talk about the different lizards we might see, the microhabitats they live in, and why they're important to their ecosystems. 🦎

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.

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.

For lizards, most of their water comes from their food, so they’ll have to make that extra time in the sun count and catch more invertebrates to eat.

Next, I would look at the scale type. This lizard has raised, overlapping scales. These are called keeled scales, and we often call lizards with keeled scales spiny lizards. Other scale types include smooth (similar to skinks) or beaded (like Gila monsters).
