Meet Robert, our Blue-tongued Skink!

Meet Robert, our Blue-tongued Skink! Did you know that blue-tongued skinks use their tongues to "smell" the air and as a defense mechanism? In the animal kingdom, bright colors like blue often indicate that an animal may be poisonous. However, Robert is just bluffing - his blue tongue is meant to shock predators, but he's harmless. He loves snacking on snails from the gardens of Australia!
