In the morning, this lizard rubs up against
plants. Drops of
dew
from the plants collect
on its spiky back.
These drops run along tiny
grooves
between
the spines. The spines and grooves carry the
water straight into the thirsty lizard’s mouth!
Thorny devils
snack on thousands
of tiny black ants
in a single day.
