It’s a Horned Frog
The Fort Worth Zoo welcomes baby horned lizards.

Actually, it’s a baby Texas horned lizard. This adorable little guy and 24 siblings hatched at the Fort Worth Zoo just in time for the football season. They were about the size of a penny at birth, weighing in at a whopping 2.5 grams. In a few weeks, once they’ve toughened up and put on some grams, some of the newborns will be on display in the Zoo’s Texas Wild! exhibit. The Texas Horned Lizard is a threatened species in Texas and Oklahoma.
