It runs, it runs, the lizard!

The Mojave fringed toe lizard (Uma scoparia) is endemic to the Mojave Desert in California (western United States). In summer, in this desert, the temperature can exceed 50°C. To survive this heat, the little reptile has adapted and evolved. Its toes are fringed, that is, they are covered with scales. This allows him to run without burning his feet! In addition to this biological uniqueness, this lizard has the best camouflage in North America: Its sand-colored skin merges with the dominant color of the desert.
