Lizards wearing tiny backpacks live fast and die young
By Jacinta Bowler

Ecologist Kristoffer Wild spent a year in the Australian outback fitting bearded dragons with hand-sewn jackets with GPS trackers to track every second of the lizards' lives.

Anyway on a more serious note: is there an animal with four animal names in its name? Or more?

Just saw a leopard catshark on the telly and started wondering.

Eg:
1 dog
2 whale shark
3 tarantula hawk wasp
4 ???
4+ ???

I will never not click on cuttlefish. This episode of Many Minds with Dr Tessa Montague taught me so much about these amazing animals:
