Fortnite has revealed a new Tom Lizard skin as part of the new Hoppers crossover, and fans are already losing it over the cosmetic.

Pixar's new animated film, 'Hoppers,' gains unexpected marketing momentum from a viral meme featuring Tom the Lizard. The quirky character has captured public attention, helping the studio build anticipatory buzz for the film's release.

It’s not often that a character from a movie becomes a viral meme before anyone even knows the name of the film he’s from, but that happened with Tom the Lizard ahead of Disney-Pixar’s Hoppers. Set to finally premiere next week,

A video of a ‘fire-breathing lizard’ is floating around on social media, leaving netizens curious about the species. The clip showed the tiny lizard blowing fire! Have you watched it yet?, Viral, Time

A lizard with a prominent nose, lost for 150 years, has been rediscovered in Peru, raising concerns about its fragile natural habitat.

Researchers say the newly identified species differs by at least 7% genetically from related lizards.

It uses its climbing abilities to eat the eggs and young of other animals. And in this footage captured for the BBC TV film Komodo: The Deadly Bite, a lace monitor finds a nest full of opossum babies. The mum kicks up a noisy defence which initially drives the lizard away. But it clearly needs a meal, as it goes back for a second desperate attempt.

“Given their size they often roam folk’s homes like dogs or cats and there is a chance that in warmer months Frankie escaped and was surviving on her own outside until the weather got too cold for her to manage,” Gannaway explains. There’s also the more unfortunate possibility that the lizard was recently abandoned.
