How does a Texas horned lizard defend itself?

Answer 1

Their bodies are made for it. At night, when its cold, they bury themselves in the warm sand. During the day, they sunbathe, until its time to eat. Since they're cold blooded, the heat doesn't bother them like it would mammals.

Answer 2

Texas horned lizards survive in the desert with the help of their scaley skin ans since they are cold-blooded they purposely lay out in the sun to warm themselves up.

Answer 3

A Texas horned lizard defends itself by squirting its blood at its attacker. It can fire up to a third of its body blood without any bad effects.

Answer 4

They're made for it. They're cold blooded, so they don't get overheated as easily as we mammals do.
