When it comes to studying lungs, humans take up all the air, but it turns out scientists have a lot to learn from lizards. A new study from Princeton University shows how the brown anole lizard solves ...

Meet the world's first gene-edited reptiles: albino lizards roughly the size of your index finger. Researchers used CRISPR-Cas9 to make the lizards, providing a technique for gene editing outside of ...

The Carolina anole (Anolis carolinensis), commonly called the green anole, is native to the United States and is the most common lizard found in Florida in both urban and rural areas. Some call it a ...

CRISPR-Cas9, a technology that allows scientists to edit an organism’s genes, has been used to do everything from experimenting with lab-grown meat to breeding climate-change resistant crops. Now, ...

The bubbles the anole lizards use may act as a "physical gill" that can pull oxygen from the water while accumulated carbon dioxide escapes into the water over the surface of the bubble in a process ...

Sarah Baade practically considers anole lizards her personal gardeners. The green little reptiles have a knack for keeping her company at her San Antonio home while she tends to her front yard ...

Researchers collected images of lizards with missing limbs from experts around the world. Pictured here: an American green anole. Tony Gamble Jonathan Losos, a lizard biologist at Washington ...
