The Green Basilisk is a lizard native to Central and South America, known for its vibrant green color and distinctive crest along its back. It can grow up to 3 feet long and is often found in rainforests, where it thrives in humid environments. This lizard is an excellent climber and spends much of its time in trees. One of the most remarkable features of the Green Basilisk is its ability to run on water. It can achieve this by rapidly moving its legs, creating air pockets that support its weight. This unique skill helps it escape predators and navigate its habitat effectively.
