Flying Dragon animals that are almost impossible to find
, #Aceh, #Indonesia - I used to live in trees full of trees, chirping various birds heard here, and also often found flying lizards or Flying Dragon.
The scientific name of this beast is Draco Volans Linnaeus. In English is called Gliding Lizards or Flying Dragon.
Called a lizard because its size is only slightly larger than the lizard, although if we observe more like a chameleon because the skin looks rough and striped.
This reptile seems to actively hunt down and find a partner during the day.
The yellow or bright chin pockets look as wide as a sword.
Flying Dragon's unique habits often bring out chins in quick movements.
Actually Flying Dragon does not fly but glide like a squirrel from tree to tree.
Flying Dragon moves to another tree by climbing a taller tree and then jumps while developing its wings.

Draco volans the binomial name
Flying Dragon does not include protected reptiles, its impact in rural Aceh, Indonesia we rarely encounter these reptiles.
I hope the future will get special attention from the government.
Unlike the lizard that can survive by crawling the wall of the house, while the Flying Dragon live high trees, in the villages are also rarely found high trees.
In the breeding season, it often happens that some men chase women in the same tree.
Dragon Flying keeps the eggs on the ground near the base of the tree, digging the ground with a muzzle.
