People all throughout the world commemorate World Lizard Day.
There is no restriction to celebrating World Lizard Day. Anyone out there who is keen on reptiles or has common pets such as a green iguana can celebrate either by visiting a nearby zoo or by sharing pictures of their pet.
It is unclear who started World Lizard Day, but the day it was initiated, it might have saved many species out there. A great relief for reptile lovers!
It is yet unknown who started World Lizard Day, but whoever did might have made many people aware that there are 5600–6000 species of lizards. Lizard species vary on the basis of their size, shape, and natural habitats. A large lizard might have a short and thick tail, while a small lizard might have a thin and long tail.

There is no specific custom or any ritual to celebrate the World Lizard, and it can be celebrated by anyone in the world. There are 5600–6000 lizard species with different sizes, shapes, and tails. Mostly, the lizards are seen on the house walls in the backyard and are controlled by the pest controllers in human settlements.
World Lizard Day is the ideal occasion for a joyous observance of a reptile affinity, as well as a platform to increase awareness about the natural world.
Visit your local wildlife park and learn about the lizard species.
If you are an enthusiastic reptile lover, then do adopt one, considering all the points before bringing them home.
Bring in some good study material elaborating on reptiles such as lizards.
Enjoy reading about famous lizards such as Puff the Magic Dragon, Spider-Man's enemy, and Godzilla.
There are around 5600–6000 different lizard species, many of which are listed under the category of threatened species.
The purpose of World Lizard Day is to bring to the public's attention the primary threats to this reptile species, such as habitat loss.
The average life of a house lizard is two years. But in general, lizards can live for up to 10 years.
Lizards don't require quite so much nutrition when it's chilly outside, which is normally at night. They can be found in the warm corners of a wall's cracks.
Most lizards are cold-blooded animals which means their metabolism slows down in colder weather. So the answer to this question depends, not only on the species of lizard but also on the season!
