? Lizards are reptiles. Animals in the lizard order of Reptilia can be called lizards, so there are many kinds of lizards. Most of these species like to eat meat, and there are many small animals in their living environment, which may become food for lizards. Lizards hunt faster and more efficiently, so they can catch many kinds of animals. One of them is ants, and lizards also eat ants.
However, generally speaking, the lizards that eat ants are very small lizards, they can not catch other larger animals, they can only use very small ants as food. But larger lizards will not use ants as their main food, because ants are too small to meet their needs. Although they sometimes eat ants when they encounter them, ants are not their staple food. In addition, some lizards themselves do not eat ants, such as herbivorous lizards, which do not eat ants or other animals.
above, many lizards eat meat and can eat many kinds of animals. In addition to the ants mentioned above, centipedes are also very important. Wild lizards also catch centipedes for food when they encounter them smaller than themselves. However, if the lizard is very small and the centipede is very large, then the lizard cannot use the centipede as food. When breeders raise lizards as pets, they can also eat centipedes, but centipedes are not easy to catch, so mealworms are more commonly used.
