what is the food chain for basilisks lizard?

basilisk is a mythical creature. given that, why should it be included in a concrete foodchain when it does not exist?

If you are capable enough, actually get a reptile, you will attract your science class enormously. Let them touch it and feed it. Make your class jot down reptile's physical features, what they are used for and make them have a guess what the reptile food chain is. You may want to add some additional information on anphibians, because lots of people don't know the difference between the two alike species.

Here is a very good site, hope this helps.\nhttp://www.coopsjokes.com/amz/amzrept.htm\nHere are some other interesting facts, I got them from watching the Discovery Channel.\n-The basilisk (or Jesus Christ) lizard has the ability to walk on water.\n-Recently a two headed albino snake was put up for sale.  Albino alligators are also known to exist.\n-Cottonmouth rattlesnakes were given their name because the insides of their mouths are white.\n-Snakes can dislocate their jaws to swallow prey whole.  I know that some species of snake can consume deer whole.

They have the short, simple digestive system of a carnivore that is very tolerant of rotting food full of bacteria.\n\nSome reptiles are also very tolerant of rotting food.

depends on which lizard you refer to

Most wall lizards are Geckos.  The largest of these normally encountered would be the Tokay Gecko of Southeast Asia/Malaysia.  \n\nTokay Geckos can definitely bite if they feel threatened, but they won't deliberately attack humans it's purely defensive.  Even if they do bite, it doesn't really do much damage.  The biggest concern is that the lizard will break off several of his teeth in the process, and then the poor lizard is prone to infections and finds it harder to hunt.\n\nAll of these lizards are primarily insectivorous, and thus pretty beneficial to have around.  In many cases, their favourite food is cockroaches.  \n\nI was so excited when my hotel room in Mexico had little geckos on the walls.  It was so cool!  Sadly, we don't get many lizards up here in Canada.

Paella. No I think they eat sea anemones or other coelenterates and encorporate their nematocysts.

Leopard frogs should be fed a variety of invertebrates such as crickets, wax worms, fly larvae, and earthworms. A meal of 3-4 crickets daily is a good starting point, although some experts recommend feeding mature frogs only every other day. Variety seems to be key with frogs - crickets can make up the bulk of the diet but should be supplemented by a variety of other insects and worms. Prey items should be gut loaded (feed nutritious foods such as fruits, vegetables, dog food, fish food etc.) before being given to the frog. Once weekly dust the crickets with a complete reptile vitamin mix. \n\nKeep an eye on the body shape of your frog. Remember that overfeeding is likely more of a problem than underfeeding so make sure the frog is not getting too round and cut back on feeding if necessary. \n\nHope this helps... :)

Well, the only venomous lizards in the world are the Gila monster, which is found in the Southwestern USA extending into Mexico, and the beaded lizard, which is from Mexico.  \n\nThere are lizards, such as the komodo dragon (Indonesia) that have bacteria in their saliva that can kill; but they're not technically venomous.  \n\nIf the animal is an amphibian (wet/slimy skin, smooth, not scaly); then yes, it is poisonous -- all amphibians are; the poison is in their skin/slime.\n\nAside from that, I'd suggest contacting a local Biology teacher at a college/university; or a local zoo if you have one.\n\nWhen in doubt, leave it alone; and good luck with your search!\n\nAdditional information, because "leviter" seems to think I'm making these things up:\n"Because of the bacteria, a Komodo's saliva is poisonous" - PBS documentary cited below.  "the toxic bacteria in their saliva will kill it within the next few days" -- Smithsonian National Zoo Website listed below. "Their saliva contains more than 50 different strains of bacteria that can result in the death of prey from infection even after only being bitten" -- Univ. of Michican Museum of Zoology\n\nVenomous lizards -- "The Gila monster is one of only two venomous lizard species in the world." -- from the Saint Louis Zoo website.  You can also check the Merck manual on "Venomous Lizards."\n\nAmphibian toxicity -- "All amphibian skin is poisonous to a degree. The major reason for this is to produce a bad taste to a potential predator. Some species of amphibians do have secretions that are toxic to humans and other animals, such as the poison dart frogs and other tropical frogs of the family Dendrobatidae." from the US Geological Survey Website\n\nLeviter's information comes from a single source, which holds credibility in that it appears in a peer-reviewed journal, Nature.  The article mentions that the lizards mentioned posess venom glands; but I didn't read whether they had actually retained a means of injecting said venom.\n\nAgain, find a local expert (zoo or university); but remember that wild animals typically won't go out of their way to harm you if you leave them alone & give them their space.

Feeding Habits - Warmouths are carnivorous. Crayfish, shrimp, insects and small fishes make up the bulk of its diet. Most of its feeding is done in the morning, as it seems to sleep at night.

They'll eat pretty much any small vertebrate in the trees - lizards, frogs, birds and bats. Paradise Tree snakes are primarily lizard eaters.

If the answerer above had actually read the link he provided, he would have realized that millipedes are NOT predatory.  They feed on dead and decaying plant material.  They really like lettuce and cucumbers, but both of these are mostly water, so it's important to supplement it with other fruits and veggies.  Since they like 'em rotten, it's not important to get them out of the tank when they start getting icky.  This is a good way to use up those bendy carrots and freezer burned peas.  They also like fish food flakes (which are pretty much just algae).  I've heard that some of the brassicates (broccoli, cauliflower, kale, cabbage, Brussels sprouts) can be poisonous to millipedes.  I don't know if it's true or not.\n\nDead and decaying plant material from outside (leaves, weeds, etc) can also be provided, for habitat if not food.  You should put this in the freezer for a few days before adding to the tank to kill off any outside bugs that are hanging onto the material.\n\nThe rotting vegetation in the tank is probably the only drawback to keeping pet millipedes.  Other than that they're pretty easy to keep, and interesting.\n\nThey do exude a nasty smelling chemical when disturbed, which includes toxins like cyanide (!!!).  So it's important to wash your hands thoroughly after handling millipedes.\n\nThe millipedes themselves don't require spraying.  They do like high humidity in their habitat however, and if you are keeping them in a tank, then the plants and moss in the tank should be kept moist.  How often you need to do this will depend on how high the temperature inside the tank is, and what your local humidity is like.  Where I live it is very dry, and one tank of millipedes I helped take care of needed misting twice a day.  Other areas may require much less.\n\nHow long they live depends on what species they are.  Most pet millipedes are African giant millipedes, and will live 7 to 10 years if kept healthy.\n\nMale millipedes have a specialized pair of mating legs on their 7th body segment called gonopods.  These look kind of claw like, and may be carried tucked up under the body.  That's the easiest way to tell them apart from females, but it's not that easy to see even if you know what you're looking for.\n\nIf you do indeed get a male and female millipede, the mating will pretty much take care of itself.  Once they lay eggs, the little baby millipedes will stay under the soil, so you need to bury some food for them.  Another major food source for the babies is actually their parent's poop, so it's a good idea to bury it in the tank, rather than cleaning it out.

The Ichthyosaurus was a predator. It ate fish, shellfish and squid.

You  should feed the lizard tiny baby crickets. You can buy them at Petsmart and buy it some baby lizard food at the store to.

Lizards _do_ have an excretory system, just like all vertebrates. \nTheir kidneys produce uric acid as final product of nitrogen metabolism, and uric acid combines to form salts (urates) that appear as whitish crystallized matter. \nThe end of the excretory ducts of lizards open at a cloaca, that also includes the end openings of the reproductive system and the digestive system. The excretions of lizards are of 3 types: brown solid matter (feces from the digestive system), white chalky semi-solid matter (urates), and clear liquid (urine). Often the feces and the urates are discharged together, that's why you see the white spot. \n\nThe same happens in birds, btw.
