The Pogona is a group of reptiles that includes different kind of species of lizards often called "bearded dragons." The name "bearded dragon" comes from the little thorns that reside beneath the head of the animal which resemble beards.

The bearded dragon is often found in Australia. In the wild, it inhabits the arid and subtropical woodlands, savannas, shore areas, deserts, and scrublands.

The bearded dragon is usually kept as a pet. In fact, this is fast becoming one of the most popular pets in the UK because they are easy to take care of, have a long life span, and eat a wide variety of food.
