The pictures of the basilisk lizard's feet are as follows. Interested friends can take a look. The basilisk lizard is relatively heavy, with a long body and big feet. There are leaf-like overhangs at the bottom of its feet. When walking on land, these overhangs will be folded up, but once running into the water, these overhangs will open, increasing the contact area between the soles of the feet and the water. Based on this alone, the basilisk lizard can still run on water.
When the basilisk lizard is running on the water, its hind limbs will provide a gap on both sides of the middle part of the body while moving rapidly. The lateral support force is almost as great as the upward support force, which prevents it from falling when running.
