This large dragon is only exceeded in length by the Frilled Lizard though Water Dragons are bulkier. Semiaquatic, they will happily plunge metres from overhanging trees into rivers and creeks. They also can tolerate human development well. Males develop breeding hues on their throats, chests and bellies. This is the southern subspecies
