Books Franchise



Lizards are not seen in the DreamWorks Dragons Franchise, but are often referred to.

Description[]

Lizards occur in the Order Squamata, excluding snakes and worm lizards They are, for the most part, four-legged reptiles occurring on most continents worldwide. They are typically small creatures, but some species can grow quite large, such as the Komodo dragon. Their legs extend outward from a usually sinuous trunk, and locomotion is side-to-side.

Lizard species occurring in Scandinavia include the Viviparous lizard, the Slow-worm (a legless species), and the Sand lizard.

Diet[]

A lizard's diet varies amongst different species. The Komodo dragon eats meat and is known to even take down deer in their native habitat. They will also feast on carrion. Iguana on the other hand, are plant eaters, feasting on fruits and leaves. Many small species of lizard, however, dine on insects and other small invertebrates.

Function[]

Lizards do not have a use in the Franchise, other than as a derogatory reference for dragons.

In reality, lizards have been kept as pets, skinned for their hides, and used as food.
