Thorny Devil
Moloch horridusThe
distinctive Thorny Devil is found in arid scrub and desert regions of Central Australia.
The spectacular creature is a favourite of many young children, with its
strange jerky gait and tail held in an upward curve.
The following images were taken at the Nocturnal House at the
Alice
Springs Desert Park. Thorny Devils can also bee seen at the
Reptile Centre in Alice Springs. |
