On this adventure I’m in Western Australia tracking down the sharpest lizard in the world! Covered from head to tail with spikes as sharp as a rose thorn. I’m going to put it to the test and see if it’s sharp enough to draw blood!

@@Repent-and-believe-in-Jesus1God is also against forcing religion, the thing you're doing, because it goes against the free will he's given us. I'm not that well versed in Christianity so correct me if I'm wrong but God doesn't force religion, so why should you? If your intent isn't to push religion on people on KZread who are just minding their own business, then it's to educate them. But why? Surely, someone who's actually interested in Christianity, or someone who is Christian, already knows this stuff. And the people who don't... Well, they probably don't feel the need to learn about Chritianity, and that's fine. Christianity is about being kind and accepting other people's beliefs. So, from me as an Atheist to you as a Christian: We may not see eye to eye but one thing's for certain, forcing people to listen to your preachings is just going to deter them from actually listening
As someone who absolutely loves lizards, this is both the coolest and cutest lizards I have ever seen!
The Thorny Devil is one of the most common lizards in the west outback of Australia but it is indeed one of the most bizarre and cute looking animal.
he’s so cute awh i love little lizards they’re so adorable 😭💗

That water drinking ability would be REALLY handy during flood season... As long as it comes with filtration anyway.
The amount of effort you put into just finding a creature is praise worthy. Searching in those hidden lands of Australia is amazing facing all the dangers and hurdles. Thanks for the amazing experience. Keep on doing the good work

What a beautiful lizard. I never knew such things existed in this world.
My mum grew up playing with these little guys and she always said they one of the most unique animals she had a chance of spending time with,
Turtle frog and thorny devil back to back? Mark you’re COOKING I highly suggest going for a regal jumping spider and some other southeastern USA inverts when filming in the states again, since in the past y’all went reptile heavy on the region, but overall I’m liking the animals being filmed as of late :D👍
That's AMAZING! ITS SO COOL I have been watching you for a long time!
That's a very cool species. Can't wait to see more of Australia's reptiles you might find in the future.
Australia is the coolest place for little lizards. This, the Bearded Dagon, the Shingleback Skink, the Frilled lizard. I want one.
His little claws are awesome.
truly the embodiment of Bombastic Side-eye ❤
I love how the lizard is just chilling out with you
What a beautiful little creature, like a tiny dragon. I absolutely love it. And sad that I never heard anything about it, before this video.
They are so amazing and beautiful!
Huge fan of yours keep up the great videos!
I'm finally back at this channel after 4 years, the videos are still goated as it was.
That's crazy, absolutely stunning
the throny devil is a massively defensive creature. Mark is very brave to encounter one.👏👏👏👏❣
It looks so cool!
Such a pretty lizard, Australia is a weird continent, and I love it
I LOBE YOU IVE BEEN SUBED FOR LIKE 2 YEARS NOW THE STUFF THIS MAN DOES FOR US IS REALLY CRAZY!!!

Looks like Angurius.
he is so chill and cute!
Love it, keep it coming.
The thorny devils really are an awesome breed of lizard. Hopefully one day I'll be able to get over to Australia and be able to see some out in the wild. The thorny devil is just one of the Australian reptiles I would love to see.

Oh really? All I said is that this thorny devil looks virtually identical to my Texas Horned Toad, ""Horny Toad". I did NOT ask for scientific b.s. like it's name. They look almost identical so do NOT tell me that they're not "closely related" to the Horny Toad - hell look at them.
one of my favorite lizards. Always thought it was awesome to watch them drink from their feet. if they soak up enough water, you can actually see turn into a ball of water above its eye and drinks it.
Am I the only one that thinks it is very cute??
First time seeing one of these and they look really cool
Fascinating animal. Thanks.
We've found heaps of these on the roads in north WA (not dead)

Great episode! I remember learning about this lizard almost 30 years ago and being in awe of them. I even made a sculpture in art of one. Thanks for making me feel like a kid again :)
Oh my gosh. He is so adorable 🥰

Beautiful creature!
Such good looking lizards!
someone give this man a pokedex, he complete it instantly lol
ok i think we can agree they are so cute no matter how spikey they are... I SHALL HOLD ONE
That thing is like a real pokemon.
It has absolutely no fear because it knows it will mess a predators day up lol
its like trying to find a pokemon in the wild.. so cool
At least the thorny devil stung isn't half as painful as some of your other stuff with wasps and scorpions
Thing is super chill
That was awesome I love thorny devils especially how they drink water 💧 from their spines 🤩😍😈🦎🥰
My parents told me these used to be common, they would find them in the backyard in Perth, WA. Its a bit sad, I dont think they live anywhere near the city anymore, ive never seen one.
Me and my brother caught one of these as kids in Arizona which is funny cause we always wanted bearded dragons from the pet store. He was just chilling in our sandbox ☠️
When the lizard started trying to spike him n he said “I thought we had an agreement” I died 😂😂😂😂😂
beautiful creature
"I't can drink through it's feet! You can see this happening, i'm gonna see if we can demonstrate here" -pours water onto sand- "wooooooow."
That might be the coolest looking living thing on the planet.
Do a Hottentotta tamulus next! That would be great to watch 🤣
Looked painful 😱🤮 good thing you're professionals...I liked this video Brave Wilderness yes!!!!👍😅
Found one once on a trip with my family out bush. He was much bigger than the lad in this video, but he was just as chill and easy going. Cause they only eat ants, their metabolism is really slow, and they don't have much aggression at all and rely mainly on their spikes and camouflage to deter potential predators.
that is one beautiful creature.
Looks like a cross between a rhino and a crocodile. Which begs the question '.....how!?" 😂
After seeing the water demonstration....I want one😂
Does the "false head" grow back after prey take up the offer, or is it a one and done defensive measure?
Ouch.
devil's like "oh look at those creatures enjoying the very thing I want them not to"
Wow.....😊😊😊 it was amazing
How do its predators manage to eat this thing without it tearing up their insides?
That thing looks like a real life Pokémon! 😂
Didn't know Lil bro was chill like that
Hi I love brave wilderness and coyote Peterson be brave and stay wild ❤😊😁
Coolest animal i never even knew existed.
Very good video
"Rumors say it can draw blood when you try to catch it" That's not a crazy claim. A fish can also cut you if you hold it improperly or, in my father's case like 10 years ago, it wiggles or slips out of your hand and you manage to catch it again. My dad was not happy, and he took a hammer and repeatedly bashed it in the head
bro was picking up that spiky boi like a hotwheel
