Are people evolved from lizards?
If you mean do people evolve from monkeys or other animals, the answer is NO. However, people a hundred years ago were shorter and unhealthy. Due to better diets, hospitals, and knowledge of germs and diseases, (NOT evolution) we are WAY healthier.
Answer:
Of course we can. As a simple demonstration of that fact that you can have a milk shake or cheese sandwich is due to evolution.
People evolve in response to stresses on the species. Those who can't survive don't live to pass their ability on to their descendants. This is the basis of evolution. A recent example is the ability of some humans to digest milk while others cannot do this. This was in response to a need to use an available food source (cow's milk) during some lean period in our history. Those people alive at that time couldn't make use of this food, those with the necessary mutation could. We survived the others starved. In some areas (such as Asia) the need for this alternate food did not arise and the mutation never became widespread as it offered no advantage.
The ability to digest milk in adulthood, conferred by genetic changes occurred as recently as 3,000 years ago. Interestingly enough it happened independently in both Europe and Africa due to similar pressures.
There is a lizard in the house how do you get the lizard out of your house?
Pick it up and put it outside. Or leave a window open so it goes out by itself.
Is it a lizard that lives inside? In many countries there are house lizards that are harmless to you, but eat flies and mosquitoes. They can walk on the walls and ceilings. It it is one of those, then don't worry about it.
Do Komodo Dragons travel in groups?
Komodo dragons do not live in groups. However, they often gather in large groups to feed on a single carcass.
Are alligators and komodo dragons related?
There are actually very few similarities between the komodo dragon and the fictitious creature known as a dragon. They both breathe using lungs, but the fictitious dragon breathes out fire whereas the komodo dragon breathes ordinary air. The komodo dragon has scaly skin, whereas a dragon is generally believed to have scales.
What do komodo dragons use to move?
It depends on the prey animal. With small animals, they simply 'grab and chew' to inject toxins into their prey. With something as large as a buffalo, they'll usually group together and 'gang-up' on the animal. One or two bites to the leg will create an open wound, which rapidly becomes infected from bacteria in the lizard's saliva. They simply follow the animal (sometimes for days) until it collapses from the infection.
Can a hawk eat a frog or a lizard?
Well actually it can't because a lynx is faster than hawk it would require immense planning to catch such a creature while a lynx is on the ground running speed the hawk is up in the air where it is easy for it to miss it's critical catch of a lynx
Do dragon fish shed their skin?

How much food do komodo dragons eat per day?
It has been said that KOMODO DRAGONS can eat up to 8 pounds(or more) of food a day and they will eat virtually any thing that moves. It also includes their own and carcasses. it has powerful jaws so that it can break whatever part of its food it bites instantly. the other name for the KOMODO DRAGON is ORA. Although there are other names for the KOMODO DRAGON, you can check out HONOLULUZOO.ORG for more names and facts.
good luck with whatever you are doing!!
:) :p :D
Do alligator lizards eat snails?
All I can tell you, is when I recently uncovered an alligator lizard hide (under a rock in my garden...) there were a LOT of empty snail shells around. When I see an AL today I move it into our heavily planted areas.
They eat a variety of small invertebrates, including slugs, snails, and worms. Will also eat small lizards and small mammals. Occasionally feed on bird eggs and young birds.
Do backyard lizards need water?
Yes, they all do eventually. Some desert animals are better adapted to survive long periods without water.
How often do Komodo Dragons Shed their Skin?
All lizards shed their skin once in a while and so does the komododragon.
A Komodo dragon is the largest of the lizards at almost 10 feet long and over 15 inches wide. This animal can weigh up to about 300 pounds.
Where does the frill- necked lizard live?
There is an excellent Wikipedia article on the species - see the related link. Click on any of the pictures in the article to enlarge them. The one of the lizard in 'threat mode' (to the right of the screen) is particularly striking.
Is there such thing as an Axolotl?
You need to check your state wildlife website to see what exotic pets are lawful and unlawful to own. If it doesn't specify on the website, contact them. It depends on what state you live in. I know you can own them in my state, MA.
I guess a dead fish would not swim too well and neither would a shark that has been prey to shark fin hunters. I do not know of any living normal fish that can not swim. Fish can rest for a few seconds and not swim than but if a fish stops swimming than its vital organs stop working.
Exactly.
The dead fish can not swim...
Can you feed lizards fire bellied toads?
Fire bellied toads eat crickets. They eat 2 or 3 every other day. They can also eat 1 mealworm two times a week instead of crickets. Once a month or less often sometimes, I feed my toads 1 wax worm each, then skip a feeding. They eat no crickets on wax worm day. On the feeding after the skipped one, theyonly eat 2 crickets each. The next feeding they continue to eat normally.
To ensure the crickets have full nutritional value they should be gut loaded (fed) on healthy vegetables, like carrots, squash, sweet potatoes and green leaves immediately before being fed to the frogs. Crickets that aren't gut loaded are not very nutritious. Once a week, feeder insects should also be dusted with a calcium and vitamin powder, to ensure the toads are getting sufficient calcium and vitamins.
Phoenix worms are another excellent food for frogs and toads because they are very rich in calcium. They are the maggots of the black soldier fly and can be bought online now.
What is the full name of the yellow spotted lizard?
I think it's safe to say that most lizards that we know of aren't too big. But others can grow to absolutely enormous sizes. So, with that said, let's say that lizards can range from a few short centimeters to a whopping three meters. The Jaragua Sphaero (the Dwarf Gecko) is about 0.6 inches long, ... all the way up to ... The Komodo Dragon which can be up to ten feet long.
The Carribean lizard Sphaerodactylus ariasae is only about 16 millimeters long, conversely the Komodo Dragon (Varanus komodoensis) grows up to 3 metres.
Mohameds mum washes pigs in her sink hahahahaah lol
Crested geckos(R. Cilatus) thrive in a habitat ranging from 50-80% humidity at all times. If a crested geckos enclosure is not providing enough humidity and moisture for the shedding process, in most cases a Crested Gecko will burrow into the most moist spot of the tank. This could be the soil from a planted tank, or even some damp paper towel cramped up in the back. Look over your humidity levels and be sure that they are reaching 75-80% daily for at least three or four hours. To do so, add a couple of extra greens in the set up, provide a tank with peat moss/ coco-husk mix as substrates (this tends to hold moisture for longer periods of time) or simply add a tupperwear container with a hole cut in the lid and filled with paper towels, be sure to mist it daily to keep moist.
How long will it take from mating to laying eggs for lizards?
I'll let you know sometime soon. I caught a gravid girl and let her drop her eggs, fattened her back up and released her. I was actually googling the incubation period myself. she laid 13 eggs on 6/2/12. Two of them appear infertile when candling them but they've not started molding or looking bad on the outside so I'm leaving them alone. I know most North American, egg laying colubrids (ratsnakes, king snakes, corns) take roughly 60 days at 78°-80°. That's by no means written in stone so please don't dissect and criticize the vague statements that I've made. I know eastern hognose (heterodon platirhinos) go through a MUCH shorter incubation period. their eggs are almost translucent and very thin shelled as apposed to the vast majority of oviviparous snakes around the area. well....... just wanted to say that I'd post my findings once mine start hatching. I've incubated sceloporus eggs a dozen times but never paid attention to timelines lol. later
Do lizards have movable eyelids?
Yep, they do, in fact its one of their distinguishing characteristics (as opposed to say, snakes).
What amphibian is like a lizard?
Amphibians that have a simiiar body shape to lizards are called salamanders or newts. There is a visible difference between lizards and salamanders, though. Salamanders are moist and lack scales, while lizards are dry and have scales.
Maybe females could live without males, at least for Komodo dragons. These behemoths of the reptile world can produce babies without fertilization by a male, scientists recently discovered.
What temperature should lizards live in?
The right temperature to hatch ostrich eggs is about 120 degrees Celsius there the eggs will hatch because of the hormonal changes that occur within the body functions, you can also try natural sun light.
