Legless lizards come in various types, my internet research
found hundreds of different types of legless lizard around the world. They are
often mistaken for snakes because of their appearance and hissing when
threatened. This one is known as the Pallas' Glass Lizard or the European
Legless Lizard, scientific name Ophisaurus Apodus.
This was a Legless Lizard that was at the Tulelake/Butte
Valley Fair in Tulelake, California that Brad’s World of Reptiles had on
display to teach people about these animals. Their Facebook page can be found
