Ever dreamt of having a miniature dragon as a pet? The Red-eyed Crocodile Skink could be just that, though you have to be okay with feeding it live bugs. Endemic to the tropical rainforests of New Guinea, this 10-inch dragon has a lifespan of 5 to 12 years, and is one of the few lizards that can vocalize when in distress. An excellent climber and swimmer, it is rather shy and spends most of its time among the leaf litter on the forest floor. If startled, it will freeze and play dead, and if that doesn't work, it may drop its tail to make a diversion while it skitters away.
