Learn how frilled lizards use their colorful frill and funny hissing sounds to scare away animals and stay safe. Perfect explanation for young children!
Hi there! Let's talk about a special lizard called the frilled lizard. This lizard has a big, colorful frill around its neck, kind of like a big collar that it can open up.
When the frilled lizard feels scared or thinks an animal might want to eat it, it opens its big frill really wide. This makes the lizard look much bigger and a little scary so the animal might decide not to bother it.
Do you know what else it does? The frilled lizard makes a hissing sound, like a quiet growl, to sound even more scary.
So, the frill and the hiss help keep the lizard safe by making it look big and loud!
