Interesting Facts About Lizards: Lizard is a common but mysterious creature that maintains environmental balance by eating insects. It eats its old skin, which also provides nutrition and the hunter does not get clues.

The lizard is a creature that is easily visible in almost every house. But as soon as people see it, there is a feeling of fear or disgusting. Many people are shocked by its strange gesture and sudden escape habit.

Although this organism does not harm humans directly, but its main advantage is that it maintains balance in the environment by eating insects. If ever a lizard falls into food or drinking water, it can be poisonous and can damage health. Therefore, it is always prudent to distance away from the lizard.

There are many things related to lizards that may probably be shocked. One of their special things is that they change their skin from time to time. When their old skin descends, they do not throw it, but eat it on their own. This gives them two benefits.

The first advantage is that there are some nutrients in that skin which are necessary for their body. The second advantage is that when they eat their old skin, no hunter can find proof of their presence. It is also their way of safety. Also, this habit also helps them in saving energy.

Lizards remove their stool and urine out of the same hole. The same hole is also used in their reproduction. This is a unique creation of their body, which makes them look different from ordinary creatures. This body structure helps them to mold the environment.

Some species such as ‘Udumba’ and ‘Monitor Lijard’ eat their own children when needed. When they feel hungry, mental stress, or feeling danger, then they take such a drastic step. This is one of their natural defense methods. Although this behavior may seem strange to us, it is part of their life.

You must have seen that if the lizard’s tail is cut, then it keeps moving for some time. This is part of his self -defense system. When the tail keeps moving, the hunter’s attention becomes focused there and in the meantime the lizard saves itself and runs away from there. This is a clever way to escape.

Lizards have a special ability to smell in the tongue. They understand the smell of the atmosphere by taking out their tongue. Special glands on the tongue hold the smell and give them an idea of direction and hunting. That is why lizards are often seen taking out the tongue.

These common but special information shows that the lizard is a small but very unique creature, which plays an important role in the balance of nature.
