I Got a Pet Dinosaur (kinda)

There’s this species of lizard that is literally exactly like a dinosaur. Even though it’s a deadly creature.. I decided to build it a home and keep it as a pet. By the end of the video I find out if dinosaurs are actually good pets. The species is a Frilled Dragon

i really appreciate that you didn’t force the little guy through any unnecessary stress to get him to show off his neck frill! thank you, and mr prehistoric is pretty awesome

I can’t imagine how expensive this video was to make. He looks so sweet. My only gripe is his friendliness score because he was super chill about being handled

Cool animal, few things to note though, frilled dragons often get put in too high of humidity, the Australian ones live in arid areas and tropical grasslands and scrubland, never let humidity exceed 75% for Australian frilled dragons(50-70% is good, the upper ends would only be reached periodically in the rainy season) if you do respiratory illness will quickly follow.

your little dragon wont stay small for long and the Australian frilled dragons can exceed 90cm in length (larger than he PNG ones) they are voracious, also in the wild I’ve always found they prefer vertical trees and stumps, so give him some of those, they like to shimmy around them to get out of sight
