Generally speaking, lizards do not bite people, and they are not too hostile to humans. As long as humans don't get too close to them and don't hurt them, they won't bite. However, it is the instinct of lizards and all animals to protect themselves, and if their lives are threatened by humans, they will bite. Both wild lizards and farmed lizards may bite people in critical situations. Most lizards are not poisonous, but if they are bitten, they should be disinfected in time.
Do lizards bite? Are they poisonous?

1. Can lizards bite people

? Lizards are one of the common reptiles. There are many lizards living in the wild. They can also be kept as pets. Generally speaking, lizards are not too hostile to humans and will not bite people easily. As long as humans don't get too close to them and don't provoke them, they won't bite. However, it is the instinct of all animals to protect themselves, as well as the instinct of lizards, and biting is one of their manifestations of protecting themselves.

In critical situations, both wild and farmed lizards may bite people. Even lizards that have been farmed for a long time may bite people because of the threat to their lives. This is especially true of lizards living in the wild, because they do not often see people, and if humans approach them, they can easily be frightened, in which case they are likely to bite people. Although their bites may not be particularly serious, they still need to be dealt with in time.

2. Is it poisonous

for lizards to bite people? It has been said that lizards will bite people when their lives are threatened. Most lizards are non-venomous, and humans are not poisoned by their bites. However, it does not mean that the wound does not need to be treated, because there are many bacteria in the air, and lizards also have many bacteria on their bodies, which may be harmful to humans, and they will enter the human body through the wound. Therefore, even if the lizard is not poisonous, the wound needs to be treated and disinfected with alcohol.

In addition, some lizards themselves are poisonous, such as the "Gila monster lizard", which is not only poisonous, but also highly poisonous. Therefore, after being bitten by such lizards, it is more necessary to deal with them in time and seek medical treatment when necessary.
