The scales of the fringe-toed lizard enable the lizard to move quickly across sand, providing traction in the desert environment. Other adaptaions include fringes on the ears to keep sand out and a head designed to burrow into the sand quickly.

What does it mean when a lizard jumps up and down infornt of a man?

You see a lizard jump and land on it's back, but do you know that it means it has failed jumping? It can mean many things. 1. It is harmed and cannot move, so catch it and take care of it until healed. 2. It's diseased with a lizard disease. (Not a human one) Take to a vet and they might let you keep it. :D 3. PLAYIN' DEAD!! 4. You saw it and it jumped, but landed on its back. 4 is that it failed to jump. Maybe look at it and see if it's hurt.
