    About Reptiles
    • Reptiles are vertebrate animals
    that drag themselves close to
    the ground.
    • Most Reptiles lay eggs.
    • The skin of Reptiles is covered
    with scales and sometimes
    shells.
    • Reptiles are cold-blooded.
    • Reptiles breathe with the help of
    lungs.
    What is a life cycle?

    • A life cycle is a series of stages


    a living thing goes through
    during its life.
    • All animals go through life
    cycles.
    • It is helpful to use diagrams to
    show the stages, which often
    include starting as an egg then
    growing up.
    • Life cycles repeat again and
    again.
    Lifecycle of a reptile
    Stage 1: Egg (8-10
    weeks)
    • Reptiles begin their lives as eggs.
    • The eggs are buried or placed in a
    hole underground.
    • A clutch may range from a single
    egg to more than 100.
    • In most cases, the female reptile
    leaves the eggs to hatch alone.
    • Some reptiles, such as pythons and
    crocodilians, will care for and protect
    the eggs until they hatch.
    • Some reptiles, such as garter
    snakes, give birth to live young.
    Stage 2: Hatchling (7-
    10 days)
    • When a reptile is ready to hatch, the
    creature uses an egg tooth to break
    through the shell of the egg.
    • Once the shell is opened, the hatchling
    will typically remain in the shell for 12
    to 48 hours.
    • The little reptile can care for and
    defend itself from birth.
    Stage 3: Juvenile

    • Juvenile reptiles look similar


    to the adults of their
    species.
    • Reptiles grow slowly until
    they reach adult size and
    maturity.
    • The time a reptile spends as
    a juvenile varies by species.
    Stage 4: Adult
    • The time a reptile spends in
    adulthood varies greatly.
    • Mostly reptiles live much longer.
    • Alligators have life spans of 35 to 50
    years.
    • Desert tortoises can live 80 years or
    more.
    • Some reptiles have short life spans.
    For example, corn snakes may only
    live 6 to 8 years in the wild.
    • The green iguana reaches adulthood
    when it is approximately 16 months
    old and 9 inches long.
