Bearded dragons have a few unique and interesting social interactions. The males are quite territorial over breeding grounds. When a male wants to attract the female, it usually does so by bobbing its head up and down. The beard on the male dragon will turn jet black to help attract females as well.

            Another fascinating social interaction is the waiving of the arms. This seems to be a communication tool and is not always done when breeding is taking place, however some researchers have observed this taking place during mating as a sign of submission.
