I remember when the frontline of the Argentine ant invasion passed my house. It resulted in the local extinction of a species of horned lizard, which could not survive on the non-native ants. The lizards had previously been ubiquitous, and since their defensive measure against predators was to freeze in place, they were very easy for children to catch and play with.

That is a beautiful lizard. Looks like a cute tiny crossover between a turtle and a dragon.
They can shoot blood from their eyes. A big jet of blood, like water from a hose.
