Bearded Dragon

Bearded Dragons can grow as large as ten inches in body length or two feet in total length, including the tail. Males are larger than females

They are appropriately named bearded dragons because of their "beard," an expandable throat pouch with spikey scales.

When intimidated, bearded dragons flatten their bodies and stand erect with mouth gaping.

They are not able to change the color of their skin to camouflage with their environment, but they can change shades of color to regulate body temperature or depict an emotional state.

Males engage in combat involving beard flaring, signaling, circling and tail biting to establish mating rights
