Lizards are a very large and widespread group of squamate reptiles, with nearly 5,000 species, ranging across all continents except Antarctica as well as most oceanic island chains. The group, traditionally recognized as the suborder Lacertilia , is defined as all extant members of the Lepidosauria (reptiles with overlapping scales) which are neither sphenodonts (i.e., Tuatara ) nor snakes. While the snakes are recognized as falling phylogenetically within the anguimorph lizards from which they evolved, the sphenodonts are the sister group to the squamates, the larger monophyletic group which includes both the lizards and the snakes. Megalania prisca is estimated to have reached perhaps seven meters.

Email Annie Horny Toads are neither frogs nor toads. As members of the reptile family, they are technically Horned Lizards But if you grew up in Texas, it's a horny toad. Why is the Texas Horned Lizard on the endangered species list? Most older Texans have had, at one time or another, a horny toad for a pet. Its appeal is the combination of a fierce appearance and a surprisingly pleasant personality. You can hold one in your hand, turn it over on its back, and stroke its belly until it dozes off. Unfortunately, the horny toad's appeal is in part responsible for the rapid decline. In the fifties and early sixties, every tourist trap on every Texas highway sold horny toads as souvenirs. Some collectors gathered hundreds of thousands in a single year by paying schoolchildren a nickel for each one they brought in. Out of their natural home, the animals died, and so the state began protecting the Texas Horned Lizard in 1967. Today it is illegal even to own one as the Texas Horned Lizard is now a state-listed threatened species (federal category C2).

Print PDF of Section or Chapter Trade Reptile Trade: Lizards and Snakes      The use of lizards in the reptile products trade began growing when crocodiles declined and became protected.  Millions of Red Tegu ( Tupinambis rufescens ) lizard skins, exported from Argentina, have been used in the exotic leather trade.  Heavy exploitation of this species and the Common or Banded Tegu ( Tupinambis teguixin ) of South America caused an overall decline in populations throughout their range (Fitzgerald 1989).  All tegu lizards, Tupinambis spp., are listed on CITES Appendix II.  Several Asian monitor lizards, extremely large reptiles including the world's largest lizard, the ten-foot-long Komodo Dragon ( Varanus komodoensis ), are listed on CITES Appendix I.  The Bengal Monitor ( Varanus bengalensis ), Yellow Monitor ( Varanus flavescens ) and the Desert Monitor ( Varanus griseus ) are all endangered species.  When they were added to Appendix I in 1975, Japan refused to abide by the listing and filed a reservation on these lizards, not lifted until 1994.  All other monitor lizards ( Varanus ), which occur in Asia, Australia and Africa, are listed on Appendix II of CITES.  In spite of the latter listing, African monitor lizards are killed in very large numbers for the reptile products trade.

Their reproductive rates are lower than their mortality rates over long periods of time, so their numbers are diminishing. The reasons for this are varied, but lately, very often involves a loss of habitat as people encroach on their living areas. When a species is listed as endangered or threatened, it is not a death sentence. Many animals, like the bald eagle and the American alligator, were on the brink of extinction and are now recovering. Many species, however, will not recover, and could be lost forever. Throughout time, animal species have been going extinct (long before people evolved); paleontologists estimate that well over 90 percent of all plant and animal species that ever existed have gone extinct.
