Tropidurus is also known as the Lava Lizard as this is its preferred habitat. It is a large reptile that can go for months without food as it stores fat in its tail and gets its daily energy from the heat of the nearby volcanoes. This builds quite an appetite so when it does see potential food it stops at nothing to get it. Its thick hide, poisonous spines on its back and an unimaginable crushing force in its jaws make it a formidable opponent. |
