5 Interesting Facts About Frill Necked Lizards!

The frill around their neck is made of skin supported by long spines of cartilage connected to the jaw - when threatened, the lizard opens its mouth wide and the frill snaps open like an umbrella.
Despite the terrifying display, they're actually quite harmless - the frill is pure bluff, designed to make the lizard look much bigger and more dangerous than it really is.
When really frightened, frill necked lizards run away on their hind legs - they rear up and sprint bipedally at surprising speed, which looks absolutely hilarious.
They spend most of their time in trees, only coming to the ground to feed or when threatened - their colouring provides excellent camouflage against tree bark.
Frill necked lizards appeared on the old Australian 2-cent coin, cementing their status as one of Australia's most iconic animals before the coin was discontinued in 1992.
