Does a legless lizard have legs?
The legless lizard has the remnants of leg bones inside its body - but they are not visible from the outside.
Are there any pet store in RI or Massachusetts that have axolotls or axolotl eggs?
no because keeping them as pets is illegal without a license.
^ Whoever answered the question previously did not do thorough research. You can definitely own an axolotl in MA without a permit. I know this by going to the MA state wildlife website and looking at what is unlawful and lawful to own - See 'related link'
You can do the same by checking the RI state wildlife website.
I live in MA and have been looking for an axolotl for several years now and I am going to college for Wildlife Rehabilitation so I do keep up with the regulations. Now I can't give you an answer on where to find them, but I know people do own them. You can try going to an exotic pet store and ask if they can order some for you. They are very common in the pet trade, so don't give up!
^Hi, it is the person who answered previously. and i'd just like to say in my defense that when i first answered this question, i added "I'm not 100% sure because i don't live in MA. but where i come from, no it is illegal unless you have a license." I live in Ontario and am 13 years old, so you can't trust me too much when it comes to MA legal stuff and wildlife rehabilitation. So I'm apologising for my incorrect answer and thank you to the person who corrected me. But i did do thorough research, i went to my local zoo which has some.

Can house lizards poison food if they fall in food?
As humans, we have bacteria on our skin and inside our large intestine. The same is true for lizards although their bacteria is different from ours. We can get sick from lizard bacteria just as they can get sick from ours.
Salmonella is a bacteria that exists in lizards digestive tract and is released by things such as poop.
If the lizard has a clean cage, been washed or in other words has good hygiene, I wouldn't expect terrible results. Remember that they still DO carry harmful bacteria and you can never truly predict its effects. It certainly can't be beneficial to have a lizard fall into your food.
Depends on the species of lizard. Most lizards are herbivorous, and, for example, iguanas eat only fruits and vegetables. Others, such as bearded dragons, will eat insects as well as fruit and vegetables.
How long until you die when the komodo dragon licks you?
Komodos aren't that poisonous.
If it bites you, then it's bad, because then you get the saliva into an open would and into the blood stream.
This is certain pain, but not certain death. Good medical care and antibiotics has a good chance of saving you. All depending on the severity of the bite, and time from bite to treatment of course.
But if it only were to lick your (unbroken) skin, or drool on you, you'd be OK. Although washing it off as soon as possible would be a smart thng to do.
Is a snakes habitat different from a lizards habitat?
Yes, a rattlesnake is a vertebrae. A vertebrae is an animal with a backbone. The rattlesnake definitely has a backbone. If an animal does not have a backbone it is an invertebrate.
