Phrynosoma coronatum |
The coast horned lizard (Phrynosoma coronatum) can be found from Baja, California north to the Sacramento valley. They are a widely divergent species and have over 6 subspecies within their relatively small range. As a defense the lizard can shoot high pressure streams of blood out of its eye if threatened.
