Desert Wildlife

Here are 2 critters that were on the path between our hotel and the market. Both are desert reptiles. The first one is a Thorny Devil which is about the size of your foot. It didn't move at all when we got close to it. The second photo is a some kind of desert dragon - quite small - a bit larger than a mouse. It would jump about 30 cm at a time. Below is a video of the desert dragon jumping.
