Skinks

Skinks are lizards they are native to New Zealand and they are protected.

Skinks have dry scales on their body. Adult Skinks are about 60 millimeters to 140
millimeters long. You can’t measure the tail because it always falls of and grows in a
different length.They have small eyes but its eyesight is excellent.The Skinks skin dosing grow with them it is very small pieces.

Skinks mainly are carnivores and they eat insects bugs spiders and soft fruit of native trees. They can eat anything they can attack.


They are found in different places in New Zealand,  from warm areas to cold areas in the south. Skinks live in rocky areas like the  seashore, forest floor,tussock, alpine mountains. Skinks like sun basking in the sun to keep them selves warm.

I think Skinks are weird.
