| | Reptile - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In their natural habitats, most species are adept at this, and can maintain core body temperatures within a fairly narrow range, comparable to that of mammals and birds, the two surviving groups of "warm-blooded" animals. | | | While this lack of adequate internal heating imposes costs relative to temperature regulation through behavior, it also provides a large benefit by allowing reptiles to survive on much less food than comparably-sized mammals and birds, who burn much of their food for warmth. | | | The earliest, solid-skulled amniotes also gave rise to a separate line, the Synapsida. |

| | reptile -- Encyclopædia Britannica |
| | The taste buds of the turtle are restricted to the tongue and the walls of the pharynx; the olfactory epithelium is in the nasal cavity. | | | Reptiles are the first vertebrates that, in an evolutionary sense, have evolved an egg that is truly independent of water. | | | To survive on land, the reptiles had to develop a skin relatively impermeable to water, so as to prevent dessication, and hence not well suited for respiration. |

| | Getting rid of reptile mites |
| | Reptiles who are moderately to severely debilitated may require fluids and nutrient supplementation to help restore fluid balance and provide energy for rapid recovery. | | | The reptile must be kept without water for twenty-four hours so that the pesticide doesn't get into the water that the reptile may then drink. | | | Ticks are larger than mites and, once they are locked into the reptile's skin and are feeding on blood or digesting a meal, they don't move around much. |

| | Choosing the Right Reptile for You |
| | If you are hoping to acquire a new reptile friend, plan to spend at least one half hour a day for maintenance, feeding and observation (the fun part), and one full hour a week (on the weekend) for complete cage cleaning. | | | Fully ventilated containers for small animals, reptiles, snakes, insects, amphibians, and fish. | | | If this is your first reptile pet, buying a very small, potentially delicate, juvenile animal may not be the best idea. |
