Thorny Devil

Cat. No. GD11660

I don't know why people call me a little devil. Yes, I'm thorny, but I'm very harmless...unless you are an ant. I love eating ants one at a time (up to 3000 ants in a single meal). I live in the desert and dig a shallow burrow during the hottest part of the day. My thorny body is very useful for defending myself, blending into my environment and I can drink rain that runs along the spikes and into my mouth

Here are some interesting facts about myself I thought you might like to know:

Scientists call me: Moloch horridus

Real size ranges from: 190mm - 205mm

I usually live: in sandy habitats and live along the West Coast of Western Australia and in the arid interior

Breeding:season is in September, the female will lay 3-10 eggs underground. The eggs hatch after about 3 months.
