The horned lizard is often referred to as a “horned toad” or “horny toad”. It has a squat, flattened shape and short, blunt snout give it a toadish look. They feed primarily on ants but they are also known to eat grasshoppers, beetles, and spiders. The horn lizard is becoming extinct. Destruction of their native habitat, efforts to eradicate ants—their staple food—and the pet trade have all contributed to this.

To find this rare lizard park at the Ozona Mercantile at 10th and Ave E. Look to the park across the street, and proceed up the steps. Walk to the statue in the center of the park. Turn around with your back to the statue look for the lizard in the crotch of the pecan tree on your right. Please recover well.
