Chuckwallas eat the fruit of cactus and tender parts of plants. Mostly harmless, Chuckwallas live in rocky, dry, cactus growing areas, usually around Mexico and Arizona. Chuckwallas, if used as pets, eat lizard food. They are beautiful creatures!

What are the defenses of the chuckwalla?

Chuckwallas have several special adaptations. The loose folds of skin on their neck and sides allow them to climb into small crevices, gulp air to fill their lungs to full capacity and puff up their bodies to nearly twice normal width, so that a predator cannot get them out. Chuckwallas can also change their color somewhat to better absorb light and heat and to regulate their temperature. Additionally, like many lizards, they are capable of autotomy, so they can break off and re-grow a tail, if necessary, to evade predators. They will regrow teeth to replace them.

What kind of animals are in the great basin?

Northern GoshawkThe northern goshawk is a member of the hawk family; it's truly a beauty to behold. Young members have dark feathers. The adults are a gray color with streaks. Described as a perch and pounce predator, it is known to chase its prey into the bushes or thickets to get a meal. Their rounded wings make them beautiful to watch in flight and also give them speed in their pursuits. Adult northern goshawks can weigh between 22 to 48 ounces. Females tip the scales heavier than their male counterparts. If you visit the Great Basin Desert during the winter, you're very likely to see the northern goshawk around.Chuckwalla LizardThe chuckwalla lizard is the second largest lizard in the entire United States. Male chuckwallas can grow up to 18 inches in length. These large, fierce-looking lizards may appear to be dangerous, but chuckwallas are actually harmless herbivores who feed on fruits, leaves and desert flowers. During the warm spring and summer, you can find chuckwallas frolicking around with each other and soaking up the sun on a rock. While these passive lizards may not consume meat, they are very protective of their territories. Both males and females will defend their own. This means you should take care not to back a chuckwalla into a corner or make them feel threatened by trying to follow them into a covered area.
