[edit] Name

Should probably swap this and the redirect from Thorny Devil, which I think is the more commonly used name...

Thorny Devil, Thorny Lizard, Thorny Dragon are all common names that refer to this lizard.

[edit] devil eyes

I removed this line until I, or another, can cite it.

Although the eyes of a Thorny Devil are very small, the lizard actually has good eyesight. One observation made by herpetologist Austin Stevens was that a lizard looked up to see a bird in the sky and quickly ducked.
