The Himalayan agama is a medium-sized lizard from the agama family. It lives on rocky slopes of high mountains and is well adapted to cold climates.
The Himalayan agama differs from other agamas by its ability to live at high altitudes in cold mountains. It is important for nature as a herbivorous animal that helps spread seeds and serves as prey for birds and snakes.
Tears off plants with jaws and quickly catches insects with head movements.
