One of the many unusual animals that you can see in Costa Rica is the basilisk lizard, also known as the Jesus Christ Lizard. Check out this National Geographic video and you'll see why it got this name!

I saw one of those when I was in Costa Rica. Cool indeed. Of course I didn't get any pictures like this! Thanks for the video.
