About This Reader
The Thorny Devil is a fascinating desert lizard covered in sharp spines that protect it from predators. This unique reptile primarily feeds on ants, using its sticky tongue to catch them. The Thorny Devil can change its color to blend into its surroundings, making it difficult for enemies to spot. It has an amazing way of drinking water by collecting dew on its body, which then runs down to its mouth. The Thorny Devil's incredible adaptations make it a remarkable example of survival in the harsh desert environment.
