Natalia's Spiny Lizard (Acanthosaura nataliae)
Natalia's Spiny Lizard (Acanthosaura nataliae). Many lizards sport spines for display or protection, but Acanthosaura take this development to an extreme. Despite their fearsome appearance these arboreal reptiles still fall prey to certain snakes, and thus need to sleep on thin branches such as this during the night. Thua Thien Hue, Vietnam.
