Never seen one of these before. Looks like a tiny little dragon :) rocketboom: Nature makes the best pokeymans. This picture was posted on Reddit this morning by a user who says the “lizard with wings” was caught it Buton, Indonesia in the Lambusango Forest reserve. The crazy part is that those lines you see running through the wings like veins are actually its ribs! Evolution did a number on these guys. They can expand and contract their chests at will to glide great distances. We were only able to catch females as they were laying their eggs. All we could do is watch as the males soared overhead. According to Wikipedia, these little guys are of the genus Draco. How cool is that! via (reddit)
