A Sagebrush Lizard is usually found in altitudes from 500 to 10,500 feet, in the western part of the United States. Their name comes from sagebrush plants that they are commonly found, although they can be found in pinon-juniper, fir, or redwood woodlands. They are diurnal, and move around quickly, they will hide in crevices, brush, trees, and rocks if frightened. Sagebrush lizards eat a variety of insects and are prey to snakes, small mammals, and raptors. I found this one in the high desert in northern Arizona.
