SPOTTED: There Is Now A Road Sign To Protect Uromastyx Lizards And It’s The First Of Its Kind

Avatar

Road signs have been spotted in the Eastern Province warning drivers to be careful and look out for the ‘Dabban’, a type of lizard commonly found in Saudi deserts.

This is the first road sign of its kind in the Kingdom

Of course, we’ve all seen the camel road signs that let peeps know that camels could very well be casually crossing the road. A sign to warn motorists to slow down and avoid plausible accidents.

What are Dabbans?

Since Saudi Arabia has huuuge deserts, some even unexplored, it’s no surprise how these type of lizards can be easily found across the mounds of sands.

The Uromastyx is a type of spiny-tailed lizards that eat insects and other smaller animals, like young lizards.
