- Watch quickly on the left side to see a "Jesus Christ Lizard" (properly known as a basilisk), demonstrating its ability to walk on water (as its name implies) on a rain forest river in Costa Rica on May 24, 2012. They do this by running very quickly over the water's surface on their large hind feet, which have flaps of skin along each toe. This ability is best developed in young lizards, who can run twenty yards or more over the water without sinking. The ability to "walk on water" helps the basilisks catch food and escape from predators.
