- The name Bearded Dragon comes from their ability to puff or flare out the skin under their throats, often times darkening the skin to a black color which looks like a beard. This is a defense mechanism, making them look more threatening to predators and other animals.
- Bearded Dragons can live more than 10 years with proper care!
- Many Bearded Dragons develop unique behaviors such as “waving” or bobbing their heads. These behaviors are most often observed when they are being territorial or during mating season.
- As omnivores, Bearded Dragons have a varied diet including, but not limited to crickets, worms, vegetables and even small frozen, thawed rodents as adults.
- Bearded Dragons are native to the land down under, Australia!
- Bearded Dragons make great pets because they are easy to care for and have sociable personalities. It is not uncommon to see a tame Bearded Dragon riding around on its owner’s shoulder.
