  • - [Narrator] This is the Texas horned lizard,

  • a species which happens to be the official state reptile,

  • and you know what they say, “Don't Mess With Texas.”

  • (gentle music)

  • The Texas horned lizard is aptly named

  • because of its numerous horns.

  • The most prominent horns are the two central ones

  • located at both the center and rear of the skull.

  • Frequently preyed upon by other animals,

  • its distinct coloration allows it

  • to camouflage itself amongst vegetation.

  • But when hunted by creatures

  • such as snakes, coyotes, and hawks,

  • they can either inflate to a larger size

  • or flatten in order to blend in with the ground.

  • However, their best and more unique defense against prey

  • is their ability to shoot a stream of blood from its eyelid,

  • directly into the enemy's eyes.

  • The Texas horned lizard's population

  • has dropped dramatically in recent years

  • due to the state's rapid urbanization,

  • leaving them with a shrinking habitat.

  • This is the Texas horned lizard.
