Fighting Lizards

The ring necked lizard OF the Arizona
deserts is not q mere devourer of weak
lings. He is always ready to fight,
whether he is challenged by another or
cornered by q man. When brought to
bay in some hole, he opens his jaws
and dashes bravely out, swapping at
everything which opposes him, and SO
fierce and sudden is his rush that it is
impossible to face it without fiinching.
BY holding two of these lizards loosely
by the small of the back and allowing
their heads to clash as they struggle
to escape. one may be able to induce
combats such as must occur every day
in the desperate lizard world.
Forgetting that they were captives,
they would seize upon each other and
vent their thwarted rage to the utmost
in a fight which, but for timely inter
ference, would doubtless lead to the
death of one or the other. Such bull
dog pugnacity is rather unlocked for in
lizards, but student of character
could easily read in the set jaw and
pouched throat of this species the signs
of fighting blood.-COuntry Life In
