In addition, it turns out that the anoles can wiggle their horns up and down. But it is not clear how. Lizards do not have muscles at the tips of their snouts. Conceivably the anoles do, but that would mean they are even weirder than we thought. Alternatively, an anole might move its horn by using hydrostatic pressure to push fluids through the tissue. That would mean the horn worked in a similar way to a much more familiar appendage: the penis.
Well that would certainly lend it an offensive nickname...
