Basilisk lizards are typically found near water sources, such as rivers and streams, as they are excellent swimmers and often rely on water for their habitat. They can stay relatively close to water, usually within a few hundred meters, but may venture further in search of food or basking spots. However, their proximity to water can vary based on environmental conditions and availability of food sources.
Basilisk lizards have adapted to their environment by running on water to escape predators. They have specialized feet with fringes of skin that trap air bubbles, allowing them to stay buoyant on the water's surface. Their long toes and strong leg muscles enable them to move quickly across water.
Baby Basilisk lizards typically stay with their parents for a few weeks to a few months, depending on their ability to fend for themselves. They receive protection, guidance, and support from their parents during this time. Once they are capable of surviving on their own, they will gradually disperse and become independent.
oh!Definitely not!
No!,,you should never keep blue tongue lizards together,(captive or wild). you should always stay away from wild lizards.
well, it depends which type it is but if you say the mightiest dragon which is the Hungarian horntail dragon fights the mightiest serpernt which is the Basilisk in a battle i would recommend the horntail because it can fight in the air, water and on land whilst the Basilisk has to stay in water.
try to stay away from all moving water
When I got my baby bearded dragons they told me to use regular tap water but to add a couple drops of water conditioner to it. You can find it in the reptile section in a blue bottle. It takes the chemicals out of the water for the lizards.
they fly
The basilisk lizard, also known as the Jesus lizard, can run on water due to its unique ability to use its long toes and fast movements to create enough force to stay on the surface of the water.
Well they are wet like lizards because they need to submerge in water frequently to stay healthy.
because without moist skin they would dry up and die.
Stay well away from soap and water.
