🇺🇸: The slowworm (Anguis fragilis) is a legless lizard species belonging to the family Anguidae. Despite its snake-like appearance, it is not a snake but a lizard, distinguished by features such as eyelids and the ability to shed its tail when threatened. Adults typically reach lengths of 40 to 50 centimeters, with females often slightly larger than males. Slowworms feed mainly on small invertebrates like slugs and worms. They are common throughout much of Europe and parts of western Asia, often found in gardens, grasslands, and forest edges. This species is harmless to humans and plays an important role in natural pest control.<br>

🇩🇪: Die Blindschleiche (Anguis fragilis) ist eine beinlose Eidechsenart aus der Familie der Schleichen (Anguidae). Trotz ihres schlangenähnlichen Aussehens ist sie keine Schlange, sondern eine Eidechse, erkennbar unter anderem an beweglichen Augenlidern und der Fähigkeit, bei Gefahr den Schwanz abzuwerfen. Erwachsene Tiere erreichen meist eine Länge von 40 bis 50 Zentimetern, wobei die Weibchen oft etwas größer sind als die Männchen. Blindschleichen ernähren sich überwiegend von kleinen Wirbellosen wie Nacktschnecken und Regenwürmern. Sie sind in weiten Teilen Europas und in Teilen Westasiens verbreitet und häufig in Gärten, Wiesen und an Waldrändern zu finden. Für den Menschen ist die Blindschleiche völlig ungefährlich und ein wertvoller Helfer bei der natürlichen Schädlingsbekämpfung.<br>
