"The bearded dragon got its name from the spiky flap of skin around its snout. The flap puffs up like a bristly beard when the bearded dragon feels threatened. But the bearded dragon is not nearly as ferocious as it looks, preferring to run away rather than get into a fight. Natives of the Australian interior, these lizards are popular pets."--

One of the world's few poisonous lizards, the Gila monster is named for Arizona's Gila River. Once the lizard's venom has dripped from its grooved teeth into prey, death is imminent. Though a Gila bite is rarely deadly to a human, the bite is very painful. The Gila is the largest lizard native to the United States.

Also known as the giant green iguana, this lizard starts out small but can grow to be more than 6 feet long! It also has between 80 and 120 teeth at a time, and grows a new tooth every time an old one wears out. Despite their size and sharp teeth, green iguanas would rather run away than get into a fight. This is an exciting look into the life of an amazing lizard!
