- Female dragon lizards in Australia figured out how to avoid sex: They just lie on their backs. Apparently the male dragon lizards can’t mount them in this position, what with them having two penises. Also, when these lizards mate, the male bites the female’s neck, which can pierce her spine and kill her. Combine that with the two penises, and, yeah, we think we’d play dead, too.
