These lizards are often called \"horned toads\" or \"horned frogs,\" even though they are neither toads nor frogs. Their name comes from the distinctive horns or spikes on their head and body, which serve as protection against predators. The horns, along with their flattened, broad bodies, make them appear larger and more intimidating to threats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHorned lizards are specialized desert dwellers, well adapted to arid environments. Their coloration usually matches the soil or sand in their habitat, giving them excellent camouflage. They primarily feed on ants, especially harvester ants, but will also consume other small insects. Their diet is highly specialized, and their digestive system is adapted to handle the formic acid produced by ants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the most famous defensive behaviors of horned lizards is their ability to squirt blood from their eyes when threatened by predators like coyotes or dogs. This blood can confuse predators and even contain chemicals that repel certain species of dogs. Additionally, their spiny bodies and horns make them harder to swallow, and their flattened shape allows them to press tightly against the ground, reducing shadows and making them less visible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHorned lizards are generally slow-moving and rely more on camouflage and defensive tactics than speed. They are solitary animals and spend much of their time buried in sand or dirt to regulate their temperature or hide from predators. Unfortunately, many species of horned lizards are declining due to habitat loss, invasive ant species, and pesticide use, making them a conservation concern in parts of their range.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Borishotch Industries","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51666694144343,"sku":null,"price":15.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0791\/1050\/4791\/files\/HORNEDLIZZARDBUST1.png?v=1757479665","url":"https:\/\/borishotch-industries.co.uk\/products\/horned-lizard-bust","provider":"Borishotch Industries","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
