Check out this classic booklet I dug up.
It has some very cool photos but is loaded with misinformation as the pic and caption below show.
Very interesting anyways. 
"Even small children are able to give proper care and attention to the horned toad.
The horned toad makes an ideal first pet for the child who is too young to care for animals requiring more complicated attention, such as cats and dogs."
Cheers!

Wow I remember that book, been a long time.
I wonder what Ditmars, and Stebbins had to say about that when it first came out. It does have some cool pics. I love the "squaring off with an iguana lizard" pic. In my experience, the Desert iguana just walks right over the poor HL. Oh well. Live and learn, and then get some practical experience. Herping really has changed. Have a good one guys.
