Eastern bearded dragon
Nutrition
Insects, small rodents, birds
Habitat area
The gravelly deserts of Australia
Interesting facts:
  • It can change its shade depending on the mood, well-being and temperature in the terrarium.
  • During the rain, the eastern bearded dragon bends its body forward and drinks the water flowing down its body.
  • The saliva of the eastern bearded dragon contains a mild poison (safe for humans)
  • In case of a threat, it flattens its body, inflates its "beard" and opens its mouth - this behavior visually increases the size of the agama and scares away enemies.
  • Shows high intelligence and enjoys communicating with people.
  • The more eastern bearded dragon worries, the darker her beard gets.
