Leptien’s Spiny-tailed Lizard (Uromastyx aegyptia leptieni) is not uncommon in the UAE and Oman. Preferring gravelly areas, we snapped this one in Liwa in August 2013. These creatures are herbivores and never need to drink water!

this is great shot.
Thank you! Unusual to see them on the sand, it’s normally gravel. Glad you liked it!
