Horned Lizards(Phrynosoma spp.) are recognized as dietary specialists, with a significant portion of their diet consisting of ants, ranging from 48% to 98% depending on the species.
Ants are crucial for their proper care, and there is no genuine alternative to this specific food source. While certain horned lizard species may temporarily subsist on other insects, such as bean beetles, an extended period without ants in their diet adversely impacts the health and behavior of these creatures.
