Blogging from A to Z April Challenge: U is for Uromastyx alfredschmidti

 Uromastyx alfredschmidti is the scientific name for Schmidt's spiny-tailed lizard which is native to Northern Africa. The lizard is a threatened species due to loss of habitat.

It lives in rocky desert areas and is a herbivore mainly with an occasional bug thrown in.

The final stretch starts Monday!

Stay tuned, more reptiles coming up next week!
