Sand lizards are lizards adapted to sandy habitats, often with specialized scales and behaviors for burrowing. The term 'sand lizard' can refer to various species across the world that share similar adaptations. In Europe, the *Lacerta agilis* is often referred to as the sand lizard. These lizards are often camouflaged to blend in with the sand. They prey on insects and other small invertebrates. Think of them as the masters of disguise in the lizard world, blending seamlessly with their surroundings.
