In the third episode of the highly acclaimed nature series Planet Earth II, a hapless male Draco lizard, also known as a flying dragon, became cornered at the edge of a branch after unknowingly invading the home of another male. The situation gave him the seemingly untenable choice of either fighting or fleeing. Choosing the latter, the transient agamid effortlessly leapt into the air and soared across the jungle, gracefully landing on a different tree in search of a new home.
Draco lizards have the amazing ability to be able to fly from tree to tree in search of food, a mate and to avoid predators.
