Frilled Lizard-This sun-loving lizard (Frilled Lizard) is the reptile emblem of Australia, depicted on our now defunct two-cent coin .This reptile is part of the Dragon family, a sub-species of Lizards. They are usually active during the day and move very fast on their two hind legs .The frill normally lies in folds around the shoulders and neck and is "activated" by the lizard when frightened by opening its mouth wide .
The only animal, apart from a human, that can get a sunburn is a pig.
The Asiatic Lion (Panthera leo persica) is a subspecies of the lion which survives today only in India where it is also known as the Indian lion. They once ranged from the Mediterranean to India, covering most of Southwest Asia, and hence it is also known as the Persian lion. The current wild population consists of 250-350 individuals restricted to the Gir Forest in the state of Gujarat, India.
