Uromastyx

Uromastyx is a genus of African and Asian agamid lizards, the member species of which are commonly called spiny-tailed lizards, uromastyces, mastigures, or dabb lizards. Lizards in the genus Uromastyx are primarily herbivorous, but occasionally eat insects and other small animals, especially young lizards. They spend most of their waking hours basking in the sun, hiding in underground chambers at daytime or when danger appears. They tend to establish themselves in hilly, rocky areas with good shelter and accessible vegetation.

The generic name (Uromastyx) is derived from the Ancient Greek words ourá meaning “tail” and -mastix meaning “whip” or “scourge”, after the thick-spiked tail characteristic of all Uromastyx species.

bees do not suffer from humans harvesting their honey, as they produce it to a level of excess that they cannot hope to use.

not only that, but without people deliberately breeding them for honey, they would have died out by now.

this especially goes towards you vegans who don’t eat honey thinking it’s animal abuse. don’t go out and buy agave nectar, which is so frequently made using inhuman labour policies. use honey, the best way to save bees.

The overharvesting of agave is actually harming the animals that naturally feed off the plants such as certain types of bat. Protesting honey is killing bees and harming the livelihood of beekeepers, aka people who chose their job, not who were forced into it.
