The frilled lizard (Chlamydosaurus kingii)
They are also known as the frill-necked lizard or frilled dragon.

This is a species of lizard in the family Agamidae.
It is native to northern Australia and southern New Guinea.
This species is the only member of the genus Chlamydosaurus.
Its common names come from the large frill around its neck, which usually stays folded against the lizard's body.

The frilled lizard is largely arboreal, spending most of its time in the trees.
Its diet consists mainly of insects and other invertebrates.
It is more active during the wet season, which is when it spends more time near or on the ground. It is less observed during the dry season, during which it seeks shade in the branches of the upper canopy. It breeds in the late dry season and early wet season. The lizard uses its frill to scare off predators and display to other individuals. The species is considered to be of least concern by the International Union for Conservation of Nature. Its distinctive appearance has been depicted in media.

The frilled lizard inhabits northern Australia and southern New Guinea.
Its Australian range stretches from the Kimberley region of Western Australia east though the Top End of the Northern Territory to Queensland's Cape York Peninsula and nearby islands of Muralug, Badu, and Moa, and south to Brisbane.
In New Guinea, it lives in the Trans-Fly ecosystem on both the Papua New Guinean and Indonesian sides of the island.
The species mainly inhabits savannahs and sclerophyll woodlands.
It prefers highly elevated areas with good soil drainage and a greater variety of tree species, mostly Eucalyptus species, and avoids lower plains with mostly Melaleuca and Pandanus trees.
Frilled lizards also prefer areas with less vegetation on the ground, as they can better spot prey from above.

The frilled lizard is considered to be among the most iconic Australian animals along with the kangaroo and koala.
Archeological evidence indicates that frilled lizards were eaten by some indigenous cultures.

Because of its unique appearance and behavior, the creature has often been used in media. In Steven Spielberg's 1993 film Jurassic Park, the dinosaur Dilophosaurus was portrayed with a similar looking neck frill that rose when attacking.
