Fun Fact

The frilled-necked lizard is like a real-life dragon that can instantly transform by popping out a huge, colorful neck frill that makes it look like a tiny prehistoric dinosaur defending itself.

A bearded dragon lizard rests on a brown tree branch, facing slightly upward with a neutral expression against a dark background.
