Definisi & Makna dari "chuckwalla

What is a "chuckwalla"?

A chuckwalla is a unique lizard species native to arid regions of North America. Known for its robust body and impressive size, it has a thick-set appearance and rough, bumpy scales that help it blend into its rocky surroundings. Chuckwallas are primarily herbivorous, feeding on a variety of desert vegetation. When threatened, they seek refuge in rock crevices, inflating their bodies to wedge themselves securely and making it difficult for predators to extract them. These fascinating reptiles are well adapted to survive in extreme desert environments and play an important role in maintaining the delicate balance of their ecosystems.
