The DRAGON of the leaf-litter!

One of the Amazon's most bizarre lizards, these long Bachia have little dinosaur feet that they use to help them dig through soil!

Such an amazing genus of lizard!

Nice little article here on Bachia.

What a cutie! Those tiny feet 💕

Exactly! It doesn't quite scream "cuddle me," but those feet look so useless they are impossible to not be cute and adorable.

It's like a cute bird character where the wings would never allow it to fly, but the ridiculousness of it somehow makes it look cuter overall even though it should look pointless.
