The skin of a reptile is typically dry, scaly, and made up of keratin, which helps prevent water loss and provides protection from environmental hazards. Unlike mammals, reptiles do not have fur or feathers; instead, their scales can vary in size, shape, and color, adapting to their specific habitats. This unique skin structure also allows reptiles to shed their outer layer periodically, a process known as molting. Overall, reptilian skin plays a crucial role in thermoregulation and camouflage.
