The Frilled-Neck Lizard is a species of lizard that goes by a lot of names - Frilled Lizard, Frilled Dragon, and Frilled Agama. The most accurate name for it, however, is Frilled-Neck Lizard because it's a type of lizard that has a "frill" on its neck. While it obviously is not a dragon, it really does look like one - that's why it's also called Frilled Dragon. Since it also looks like an Agama Lizard (another species of lizard) with an additional part (its frill), it's also referred to as Frilled Agama. For the Aussies, however, they simply call it "Frilly." This lizard is in such an abundance in Australia that Australians have their own name for it. What's a frill, anyway? This lizard's frill around its neck looks a lot like a fan. It's actually made up of skin that can be folded and opened (like a fan). While it's usually folded against its body, the lizard opens it when it wants to. Excited to learn more about Frilled-Neck Lizards?
