They lash their keeled tails. They also bite. And another defense mechanism, that really isn't actually intended, is that iguanas have salmonella. Salmonella is a disease that iguanas might carry.
Some lizards lose their tails when trying to escape from predators. Also, these tails convulse vigorously when they fall thus scaring off the predator. For a moment it seems like the tail is actually living.
Also they are exothermic so they can allocate their energy to other life processes besides trying to stay warm or cool off.
Scales prevent burning.
There is a type of lizard that can run on water for short distances because of the type of scales on their feet and their speed.
Some have the ability to camouflage.
Some lizards have a physical adaptation of being see-through.
Also, they can survive in habitats with extremely hot temperatures like deserts. they escape the heat by burying themselves inside the sand.
Check out the link for detailed explanations for desert adaptations.
That depends on the lizard. Most of them run from danger. They might bite if they are caught or cornered. Many lizards can drop their tail if needed to escape or distract a predator that has captured them. One lizard, the Texas horned lizard, can squirt foul tasting blood from its eyes at predators, which confuses and repels predators.
They drop their tails, which wiggle a little to get the predator's attention away when the lizard escapes. After a few months, it grows back
Some by poison, thorns or sharp needles, or blood coming out from their eyes like one crazy lizard does! Check it out!
they eats fishys!
What is a defense mechanism
The scientific name of a leopard frog is Rana pipiens
Northern Leopard Frog was created in 1782.
Southern Leopard Frog was created in 1886.
Plains Leopard Frog was created in 1973.
I did and they were fine. If the Leopard frog is very large and the tree frog is very small you have the chance of losing your tree frog.
A leopard frog (sometimes called a meadow frog) is not something you play with (as you might with a dog) - so I would say no.
its a frog
One of the defense mechanism's of the turtle is the ability to hide in it's shell.
Stockholm Syndrome is an example of the defense mechanism of identification.
Adaptation or defense mechanism.
No, the hand gestures are not viewed as a defense mechanism but communication mechanism. Some of the hand gestures that is viewed as a defense mechanism includes crossed arms with fists and arm crossed with thumbs.
