EDITORS COMMENTS
Say 'ahh' if you dare! This Western Blue Tongue is not your average lizard dentist. With its mouth wide open and a vibrant blue tongue on full display, this reptile means business in the threat department. Hailing from the wild outback of Western and Southern Australia, this shingleback knows how to make a statement at Bell's Rapids in Perth. With its scaly armor and piercing gaze, it's clear that this bluetongue is not to be messed with. Its threatening posture serves as a warning to any potential adversaries who may underestimate its power. Don't let its cute appearance fool you; this little guy packs quite the punch! Known for their unique defense mechanisms, these Australian natives have mastered the art of intimidation. Whether it's hissing or flashing that brilliant blue tongue, they know exactly how to protect themselves from harm. So next time you come across one of these fascinating creatures during your travels through Oceania, remember to give them the respect they deserve. After all, when it comes to threats displays and self-defense tactics, nobody does it better than our Western Blue Tongue friend here!
