#Egyptian uromastyx

[sombrathedragon]

So I went to a exotic pet store today to drop off my Black Mollys that kept breeding, and I found some cool/cute animals there :]

I took this picture years and years ago (I didn't know how to screenshot back then) but it's always annoyed me that this was in a list of bad medieval crocodiles. This is very clearly a uromastyx. Evidenced by the "Arabian" and "land" and spiky tail and head.

Sometimes I sit and think about the rescues Ive seen over the years. I think the one I'll miss most is still that Giant Egyptian Uromastyx. There's a part of me who wants to pick one up as a personal pet, but I really don't have the time to dedicate to working with one if Im still going to pick up an Argus is January.

The Egyptian Spiny Tailed Lizard (Uromastyx aegyptia) lives in the deserts of North Africa and the Middle East. Although it can withstand the extreme daytime temperatures, it will also find refuge in cooler subterranean burrows.

ET, one of our Egyptian Uromastyx, getting some sun today.

[somecunttookmyurl]

So at my job we just got a new education ambassador animal— a baby Egyptian Uromastyx— and they’re taking name suggestions. Since it’s supposed to relate to the species name, it’s habitat, or it’s native range, I figured I’d ask if you were aware of any good words/names that would fit a spiny-tailed lizard of as-yet indeterminate sex.

oooh hang on i'll ask the groupchat

Spiny tailed lizard 🦎. Uromastyx is a genus of African and Asian agamid lizards, the member species of which are commonly called spiny-tailed lizards, uromastyces, mastigures, or dabb lizards. Lizards in the genus Uromastyx are primarily herbivorous, but occasionally eat insects and other small animals, especially young lizards. They spend most of their waking hours basking in the sun, hiding in underground chambers at daytime or when danger appears. They tend to establish themselves in hilly, rocky areas with good shelter and accessible vegetation.
