Two adaptation of fringe toed lizard to high temperature in the desert?

Fringe-toed lizards have adapted to high desert temperatures through physiological and behavioral mechanisms. Firstly, they possess specialized scales that help reflect sunlight and reduce heat absorption. Secondly, these lizards are active during cooler parts of the day, such as early morning or late afternoon, to avoid the extreme heat of midday, thereby conserving energy and preventing overheating.
