We have noticed the emergence of various types of insects around us. There are some insects that look very familiar to us. However, I do not study or observe their life characteristics in depth. While searching for one such insect, I found an insect called a lizard. A lizard is a small animal, whose presence is often seen in the corners of our houses, on the walls. Although it is not very attractive to look at, its body has a strange flexibility. With light gray or brown skin, a thin tail and small legs, lizards seem to wander like silent shadows on the walls. In fact, they live on the walls because many insects come to our houses at night in the light of the current, to catch and eat them and earn their living. When the house is quiet at night, its “ticking” sound suddenly breaks the silence. This sound is the source of its name. A lizard is basically a harmful insect-killing animal. It helps to keep the house clean indirectly by eating mosquitoes, flies, and small insects. That's why many people call it a "natural friend." However, I actually can't give them much priority because they make many houses dirty. However, I am not cruel to any animal, this is my merit. There is a kind of caution and silent skill in the movement of lizards. The technique of walking on the wall, stopping suddenly and catching prey is all like the perfect art of nature. I often notice that many types of insects come around the current light. That is why it can be seen on the walls of almost people's houses at night. Its technique of throwing its tail to defend itself in times of danger is also excellent. However, what seems most surprising to me is that the eggs in their stomachs can be seen from the outside. They basically lay two eggs and hatch the young.
