Blue-Tailed Lizard


Blue-tailed lizards eat insects such as beetles, small grasshoppers, and ants. This lizard was about four inches long, but they can grow to about eight inches long. If a predator tries to eat this lizard and catches it by the tail, the lizard's tail will fall off. That is how they survive. Then they grow a new tail.

Your pictures and information are great. I always liked to watch the cats and lizards play in front of our house. We were always finding several little blue tails on the porch.
