Lizards

Lizards may seek shelter under rocks, in burrows, under vegetation, or any other areas that provide cover from the rain. They may also climb up trees or walls for refuge.

Snakes and lizards can be found in a variety of habitats, including deserts, forests, grasslands, and wetlands. They often prefer areas with ample prey, hiding spots, and suitable temperatures for thermoregulation. These reptiles are distributed worldwide, with different species adapted to specific ecological niches.

A typical defence posture would be standing up on all four legs as high as it can get - with the frill fully extended, the mouth gaping wide and hissing loudly.

The Eastern short-horned lizard is endangered due to habitat loss from agriculture and urban development, as well as collection for the pet trade. Climate change and invasive species also pose threats to their survival. Conservation efforts are focused on habitat protection and restoration, as well as education and stricter regulations on collection.

"Brontosaurus" means thunder lizard. However, the name Brontosaurus is an invalid dinosaur name. The name Brontosaurus arose from the misidentification of another dinosaur, Apatosaurus. So, technically, Brontosaurus did not even exist, but its name does mean thunder lizard which I believe comes from the Latin word "tonitrus".

The main respiratory organ of a lizard is its lungs. Lizards have well-developed lungs that allow them to breathe air efficiently. They also have a unique breathing mechanism that involves the use of muscles to move air in and out of their lungs.

To keep a western fence lizard as a pet, you will need a terrarium with plenty of hiding spots, branches for climbing, UVB lighting, a heat source, and a substrate that retains moisture.

Regularly clean the enclosure to maintain the lizard's health.

Old World terrestrial lizards are a diverse group of species found primarily in Africa, Asia, and parts of Europe. They are characterized by their adaptation to living on land, with varying habitats such as deserts, forests, and grasslands. Many species in this group are known for their unique behaviors and physical characteristics.

Pets of all sorts-including reptiles-use body language and behavior to communicate their feelings and needs, and with a little practice, you'll learn to translate these behaviors. You'll know when your reptile is bored or lonely, happy or content. Some of these pet-generated will indicate contentment, such as "basking" in the attentions of his owner, eating well and adjusting to handling. But reptiles may also exhibit changes in appetite or thirst, altered sleeping patterns, subdued or cranky behavior, restlessness, unexplained color changes (primarily a signal in lizards), and aggressive behavior (including the occasional bite). If you think the latter list of behaviors sounds like the definition of human clinical depression, stress, or chronic boredom (or classic executive burn-out), you're right-and most non-humans are no different. They, too, will experience these problems at some time in life. Even reptiles bred in captivity are stressed by the cloistered life. Changes in food or schedule (yes, they do notice!), loss of a companion or mate, or habitat fluctuation may trigger acute depression or stress in your reptile companion.

While cleaning the tank, you can put the lizards in a secure, temporary container with proper ventilation. Make sure the container is escape-proof and provides a comfortable environment for them to stay in temporarily. Never leave them unattended outside of their tank.
