Frilled Lizard’s Pop-up Neck Freaks out Snake

The frill-necked lizard has a built-in anatomical shock factor…..When threatened, he opens his mouth wide and erects a huge scaly membrane that frames his head. While some snakes, like the taipan and eastern brown, are ready biters, many are actually cautious about attacking a Frill-necked lizard. They don’t want to risk an injury that might compromise their ability to feed, so they select their prey carefully. Looking big and aggressive might just be enough to put off an attacker.
