Lizards are the most abundant of the reptiles, comprising nearly 6,000 species worldwide. They are usually recognized by their dry, scaly skin, four legs with clawed feet, and external ear openings. Unlike snakes, which are legless, most lizards run over the ground.
Although some lizards eat plants, most lizards feed on insects. The most common types feed on beetles, ants, wasps, aphids, grasshoppers, and spiders. Lizards cause no measurable damage to plants in gardens and may be beneficial by eating pest insects and should be left alone.
