Lizard Species
Lizard species are a diverse group of reptiles characterized by their scaly skin, four legs, and elongated bodies. They can range in size from a few centimeters to several meters in length and inhabit a variety of habitats, from deserts to rainforests. Lizards are ectothermic, meaning they rely on external sources of heat to regulate their body temperature. They are also known for their ability to regrow lost limbs and tails. With over 6,000 species identified worldwide, lizards exhibit a wide range of physical characteristics and behaviors, making them a fascinating subject of study for biologists and herpetologists.
