Bearded dragons are native to Australia.
Australia is their home.
Princess, here, is a reptile, an ectotherm.
You may know them as cold-blooded animals.
It's too cold where I live for Princess to make a home outside.
What about these little guys?
(cockroaches hiss) The hissing sound leads us to their name.
These are Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches.
They live close to bearded dragons on the island of Madagascar.
Where I live, I can look out my window into my backyard and see deer, groundhogs, squirrels and sometimes even bears.
Now grab your family, go outside and see what type of animal critters live in your neighborhood.
