Horned Toad Has a Superpower

By Jill Esbaum

A factual (and funny) introduction to the horned toad and its gross but cool "superpower."

The Texas desert may be hard living for some, but not for a little lizard called the horned toad.

Some might even say it's a laid back life . . . unless of course he's about to get eaten.
