Scaly Smiles: 22 Lizard Memes to Warm Your Cold-Blooded Heart

Wake up, lizard people, the sun is shining and it's time to get all warmed up.

In this time of year, when April showers have finally given way to May's sun, and all the Agama lizards finally come out of the bushes and sunbathe on a bare rock. And look at you, lizard people, jealous that they live their lizard lives free, while you need to hide your true identity under the human skin suit. Isn't it a bit too hot inside there? Or does your cold veins help with that somehow?

We're not actually sure if it's the right call to turn to all you lizard people directly, because… if you really are out there, your secret is now out. You know, we saw a person lying on a large boulder in the park, in the exposed sun, not giving a single look to any of the passersby and onlookers. He was acting like every other lizard in this season - can't even resist the sun that's finally out. Was he a lizard person? We don't know. But we felt the need to have this scaely meme collection all ready here for potential lizard people's enjoyment.

So, if you're a lizard person reading this (or if you're that one man from the park - hi), just take these very relatable reptile memes with you out to the sun. Relax a little. Warm yourself. Just… don't come after us, okay? We're trying to be nice.

Did you know about the Armadillo Girdled Lizards? They look both adorable and dangerous at the same time. Apparently, they have a unique defensive mechanism of biting their tail and curling into a ball - like an armadillo - which is where they get their name from.
Want to know more about the closest thing we've got to dragons in reality? We've got you covered. These lizards are social, living in groups - which brings up their cuteness factor even higher than their adorable defense mechanism. They also live for over 25 years, which is way more than your average house cat.
