Lizard Facts For Kids Ages 6-8

In the Clouducated Kids Nonfiction Book, Lizard Facts For Kids, you will learn many interesting facts about lizards.

• Lizards live all over the world: Lizards live almost everywhere on Earth. They live in deserts, mountains, grasslands, and rainforests. Most lizards live in warm tropical climates, but some live in cold climates. In colder parts of the world, some lizards migrate or travel to warmer climates, but most lizards hibernate. They hide in small holes or they bury themselves in the sand and go into a deep sleep.
• Lizards have senses: Sight is important to most lizards for finding prey. Lizards have very good color vision. Lizards also use their sense of smell to find prey. Lizards can use their nostrils to smell, but they can also use their tongues. Some lizards have such a good sense of smell that they can smell prey from miles (km) away. Lizards have small openings for ears just behind the eyes. They listen for the sound of predators to avoid being eaten.
• Lizards have scaly skin: All lizards have scales. Flat and smooth scales make lizards look shiny. Some scales are bumpy and spiky. Other scales are hard and round and look like beads.
• Lizards molt as they grow: Lizards shed or molt their skin as they grow. A lizard sheds its skin in many pieces. The lizard may rub itself up against rocks or tree bark to help the skin come off. A lizard often eats its skin after it has been shed.
• Lizards come in various colors: Many lizards are gray, brown, or green, while others are bright red, orange, blue, or golden colored. Some lizards have patterns of spots or stripes on their bodies. Many lizards can change the color of their skin depending on their mood or the temperature outside.
