Dintlha

1

About 70% of the water this lizard needs comes from its food.1

2

Females have been seen sharing large burrows and nesting together in them.1

3

Sheltering underground gives it access to humid conditions, which helps it stay hydrated in a very dry land.1

4

Pet-trade spiny-tailed monitors are sold as two colour types, the red ackie and the yellow ackie, which are likely two different subspecies.1
