Basilisk lizards, also known as Jesus lizards due to their ability to run on water, are found in the rainforests of Central and South America. They are primarily found in countries such as Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, and Ecuador. These lizards are known for their unique ability to escape predators by running across water on their hind legs.
Basilisk lizards have adapted to their environment by running on water to escape predators. They have specialized feet with fringes of skin that trap air bubbles, allowing them to stay buoyant on the water's surface. Their long toes and strong leg muscles enable them to move quickly across water.
The enemies or predators of basilisk lizards include large reptiles, birds, and some mammals. To avoid them, the lizards hide under the leaves and does not move until the predators flee.
