Lizards are scaled, cold-blooded reptiles characterized by long bodies, four agile legs, and typically a long tail that can detach as a defense mechanism against predators. Active during the day (diurnal), they bask in the sun to regulate their body temperature and feed primarily on insects, spiders, and small invertebrates. Agile and alert, lizards are a common sight darting through tropical gardens, stone walls, and natural landscapes across Bali, playing an important role in controlling local insect populations.
