Bearded dragons have a broad, flat body with a triangular head and a pair of long, sturdy legs. Their skin is covered in a series of spiny scales that are typically a yellowish-brown or tan color. Their most notable feature is the skin on their throat, which they can puff up when threatened.

Bearded dragons are found in a wide variety of habitats, including deserts, woodlands, and savannas. They are omnivores and their diet consists of a wide variety of foods, including insects, plants, and fruits.

Bearded dragons are a solitary and territorial species. They are known for their calm and docile demeanor, which has made them a popular pet. When threatened, a bearded dragon will puff up its throat, open its mouth, and hiss to appear larger and more intimidating. They are also known for a head-bobbing behavior, which they use to communicate with other bearded dragons.
