This Is How Hot It Is in Saudi Arabia

Yes, the temperature is in the triple digits. But it feels like it's in the quadruple digits. And this Egyptian spiny-tailed lizard (Uromastyx aegyptia) has one priority: cooling down. If that means hanging out with the humans, then he's not going to be choosy about his company.

Those poor ectotherms. They'll overheat and die if they can't regulate their body temperatures by going under the shade once in a while.

Also, I was taken aback when I first read the post. Triple digits! I was like" man, that's boiling temperature". And then I remember that they still use the old measuring system in North America.
