Frilled
Lizard

What does your animal look like?
The frilled lizard has hard, rough scales. Every frilled lizard has a frill around its neck. When they are scared its frill pops out just like an umbrella.They have sharp teeth too.They have a bright, colorful mouth. Their tail is longer than its body. It is one meter long! They run very quickly on their back legs. The frill makes the frilled lizard look bigger and scarier.The male is more colorful than the female. When the frill is out it usually scares the enemy away. Their tail helps the frilled lizards balance when they run.
