	Shrub-Steppe Series: What About Lizards? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		All lizards are ectothermic, or cold-blooded, which means their inside body temperature is the same as the temperature of the air outside of their bodies.
		The side-blotched lizard, generally the smallest of the three local species, is named for the large fl spot found on the sides of its body behind the front legs.
		The sagebrush lizard has a long blue patch on each side of its belly and is sometimes referred to as the blue-bellied lizard, though the rest of its body is gray or brown.

	Lizards
		Lizards range from as far north as the Arctic Circle in Eurasia (Eurasia is the name for Europe and Asia combined) and as far south as southern Chile in South America.
		Lizards are cold-blooded so they rely on a heat source outside of their body to regulate their body temperature.
		A lizard’s temperature may be as high as 15 to 20 C degrees (35 to 55 degrees) above that of the surrounding area.

	About the Austin Lounge Lizards

		Lizard arrangements often include harmonies and instrumental parts that are themselves a spoof of the conventions of bluegrass, country, rock, and pop music.

	Horned Lizard/Horny Toad/Chaparral Lizards

		Native Mexican people also respect horned lizards attributing the words, "Don't tread on me! I am the color of the earth and I hold the world; therefore walk carefully, that you do not tread on me." A Mexican common name for horned lizards is "torito de la Virgen" or the Virgin's little bull.
		This name apparently was given to the lizards both because of their horns and because horned lizards are sacred to many people due to their blood squirting behaviors, otherwise considered weeping tears of blood.

	Horned Lizards, Part 2
		Wide fluctuations in horned lizard body temperatures under natural conditions presumably reflect both the long activity period and perhaps their reduced movements into or out of the sun and shade (the vast majority of these lizards are in the open sun when first sighted).
		Lizards that must be able to move rapidly to escape predators, such as whiptail lizards (Cnemidophorus), would hardly be expected to weight themselves down with eggs to the same extent as animals like horned lizards that rely almost entirely upon spines and camouflage to avoid their enemies.
		Horned lizard populations continue to decline and disappear throughout the southwest despite protective legislation.

	Latin Lizards: Logos vs Lottery
		Today, the various species of Anolis lizard on Puerto Rico include ones small enough to forage for insects at the ends of branches, also a greenish variety better able to hide in the leaves, and a brownish version well camouflaged on tree trunks and the ground.
		The originally less-specialized ‘ancestor’ Anolis lizard was most likely medium-sized and able to forage for insects both on the trees and on the ground, with the information for both green and brown colouring already present in varying degrees.
		For example, if the ancestral lizard species had the information enabling both green and brown colouration, then whatever the other ecological pressures might be (so long as there were trees), it would not be unlikely for both green and brown daughter species to arise.

	Horned Lizards
		Color or color patterns generally are not good distinguishing features because these lizards are extremely variable and tend to match the color of the sand or rocks in their local environment.
		There are two major lineages of horned lizards, one of which lay eggs (oviparous) while members of the other group give birth to living young (viviparous).
		Horned lizards are a rather fecund group, and lay or give birth to many offspring compared to other lizards.
