The tuatara has been around since the dinosaurs.
They have sharp looking spines but there not for defence because there flexible. The Tuatara looks like a lizard but it isn't. It’s got more holes in its head. Baby Tuatara are born with a third eye on top of its head but when there about 2 weeks old it gets covered over by scales. There dark green with a little bit of dark gray. Tuatara are estimated to be able to live to 100-150 years old.
They can be found in offshore islands or in sanctuaries

When the Tuatara is in its burrow it waits for food to walk by. They eat bugs and even baby Tuatara.
