World Lizard Day is here! (August 14, 2023)

A bit belated post for the day. A reminder that no creature is less than any other in the ecological chain, and that includes these 4-legged critters that are found around the planet, in most warm and temperate climates, at pretty much all elevations.

If you grow up in a country like India, lizards are a part and parcel of everyday life. Lizards live with you in your home and help keep it bug-free. Thus, they are not only effective outside but also inside, depending on where you are.

They serve as food for all manners of life from snakes and herons to cats and others. These awesome creatures that come in various shapes and sizes and are found, as mentioned before, in different habitats.

So join me in celebrating lizards today!
