re: Fun fact: Horned frogs aren’t actually frogs

Horned lizards, the official Texas state reptile and mascot of Texas Christian University, are as fascinating as they are adorable, with unique defense mechanisms. If alarmed, these little “dragons” can puff up their bodies, pretending to be huge.

If that doesn’t scare off the attacker, a horned lizard can shoot a stream of blood out of its eyelid, blood that tastes very bad to canid predators



Damn !
