It depends some lizards such as anoles will live longer in captivity then in the wild, because they are smaller lizards and can't defend themselves. Lizards such as Gilla Dragons would live longer in the wild because they have more room to roam. If you want to try to make them comfortable in captivity and live longer you should, make a natraul habitat. For Bearded Dragons, they live in hot areas, and the ground they walk on is almost clay like.( I suggest tile for the ground) Okay, I hope that answered the question.
