How horrifying!

We just mentioned that Beyonce got some custom-made PMK kicks manufactured with stingray, ostrich, calf hair, crocodile and even anaconda, and now her hubby, Jay-Z is following in her cruel footsteps. Literally!!

This chameleon is EXTREMELY fast!

And by extremely fast - we mean not fast at all!

Some genius taped their pet chameleon moving very slowly while a baby languidly watched from afar.

These little rascals seem very close to each other - if we were that baby we would've been freaking out!!

Check out the video (above) and let us know what you think!!

Wow!

Cats normally try and kill most other things!

This kitty must be so confused by his giant lizard buddy.

He looks just like a toy, except this toy has bite!

The lizard doesn't seem to be a fan of this kitty but that won't stop Dr. Whiskers (we just made that name up) from playing with him!

Check out the video (above) for some cat on cold-blooded cuteness!

We've never seen a lizard go ham before…but this one is looking pretty pig-like!

A pet lizard sees his buddy behind a glass and there is only one thing on his mind…

HOW DO I GET OVER THERE?!?!?!?! LOLz!

So, he decides to do the world's fastest tap dance and let's just say…he doesn't get very far!

Researchers in the Andes have discovered a brand new lizard species.

It is a semi-aquatic reptile, named Potamites montanicola and it can grow to about 2.5 inches long.

Lizards aren't warm blooded, so they need a heat source, like the sun, a warm rock, or warm animal, to warm their blood and stay alive.

What is confusing scientists is that these lizards somehow are surviving in the cold Andes mountains.

After researchers spotted only one and they realized that it looked so different from other species in the area that it might be a new species, so they began an immediate search.

A researcher said:

"During the day we didn't find any, but at night we found several individuals, males and females, running and swimming in the stream.

That was a great moment for us."

They have found and photographed them but they still need to answer the question of how the lizards can survive when the mountain temperature drops to about 50 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit at night.

For now, all we can say is, welcome to the world of classified species, Potamites montanicola.

A bearded dragon lizard was sitting in front of his owner's phone, watching the screen.

So the owner put on a game called Ant Crusher where you touch an ant to squash it.

Well the lizard knew exactly what he was doing, and was pretty good at it.

Instinct we guess. Too bad he didn't get to eat the ants as well.
