The Coachella Valley fringe-toed lizard's habitat has been negatively affected in the past 3 decades, due to increases in the human population, urban development, off-roading, and non-native invasive plants. Thus, the Coachella Valley fringe-toed lizard was declared as federally threatened and endangered in 1980. [10]
Coachella Valley National Wildlife Refuge It lies within the unincorporated community of Thousand Palms , just north of Palm Desert . The refuge contains the majority of critical habitat for the Coachella Valley Fringe-toed Lizard ( Uma inornata ) within the Coachella Valley Preserve and Indio Hills Palms State Reserve .
Fringe-toed lizards also possess upper jaws which overlap the lower ones, preventing the intrusion of sand particles, and nostrils that can be closed at will. Flaps also close against the ear openings when moving through sand, and the upper and lower eyelids have interlocking scales that prevent sand from getting into the eyes.
