Lacertidae ranaclavum
Frizzard
What is the size of the animal in present day and year 3000?
The current size of a lizard today is 8.3 to 14.6 cm. The lizard in year 3000 is about 30.48 cm long.
What does it eat?
The Lacertidae ranaclavum eats a variety of insects. Sometimes they can store food and eat mosses and ferns.
How will it catch/get food and water?
Lacertidae ranaclavum catches their prey, insects, with their long and flexible long which can collect many bugs for digestion. Water can be soaked up by the scales around their body and by their tongues too. The Lacertidae ranaclavum has quiet a lot of advantages like strong hearing and eyesight. Their eyesight has night vision so they can seek food in dark conditions.
How will it keep warm/cool?
The Lacertidae ranaclavum is a cold blooded reptile which doesn't need to worry about being cool in the dark environment in lives in like year 3000. It keeps warm by either huddling with it's family or finding a source of light to regain warmth. Food can give an instant warmed to these species of reptiles. It often stores food in it's body for this purpose.
Where will it take shelter?
As Lacertidae ranaclavums can swim underneath water and enjoy the underwater experience. They hide under lily pads without fear and breath properly thanks to air bubbles and the pH levels within the water. They are quiet known for being hidden between all kinds of rocks and lumber. They can climb trees at an amazing rate and sleep upon the branches and hold on with their strong, grabbing claws. They can be transparent and camouflage to protect themselves.
How will it protect and defend from itself from attackers?
Thanks to the strong senses of hearing, smelling, and eyesight they can hide with their fast feet and run away from any predators. The spikes around the Lacertidae ranaclavum's body contains venomous poison which can cause an instant death to non-reptiles. It runs quiet fast and can claw out predators if truly necessary, but prefers to run upon trees to hide.
How will it protect/defend its young from attackers?
The Lacertidae ranaclavum contain a pocket underneath the belly for their vulnerable offspring. They run quickly away from the attackers and hide the children between their homes which can include thin burrows or small shelter between rocks. If they are being attacked aggressively, they can camouflage or claw the predator.
Adaptations and Evolutions
NOSE: The sense of smell has became stronger and they are not able to smell any surrounding predators. The nostrils have became wider than before much like a frog now.
EARS: The ears holes have became larger. The Lacertidae ranaclavum can now hear and predators who are seeking prey on them. Frogs have merged into a lizard but much bigger and exaggerated.
MOUTH: It had adapted to long, flexible tongue used for preying on insects. This had originated from frogs.
NECK: The original lizard can contain an average neck and over time it can allow them to swallow food easier.
SCALES: The scales absorb water, just like an original lizard, they also keep the scales for protection. Much like snakes, they shed the scales away when necessary.
CLAWS: The claws contain venom and became much sharper over time. The venom originates from scorpions.
SPIKES: The poisonous spikes allow the animal to protect and defend itself. It originated from scorpions, too.
TAIL: Over time the tail disappeared and it's not common for there to be a tail. It's been excluded because of the frog traits that allow it to not have a tail. Without the tail, the Lacertidae ranaclavum are able to run away quickly, not leaving a cape behind which can be an easy target.
POCKET: The idea originates from kangaroos which hide their offspring in the pocket. Same with Lacertidae ranaclavum, they protect the offspring by keeping them safe under them.
HEIGHT AND LENGTH: The Lacertidae ranaclavum is much bigger than the average lizard. Frogs can reach the height of two inches and so does the Lacertidae ranaclavum. They contain extra space for food storage, offspring protection, and water absorbing.
