Me and a friend of mine came across what seems to be a horny toad and we were wondering what it needed to survive.
here is two places with good pictures and care sheets for both species, they are similar in appearance but come from completely different continents, funny enough they both require the same sort of husbandry, but there you go.
hope this helps!!!

your not going to find a bearded dragon walking around outside your house. Google Horned toad care sheet. They are hard to take care of and eat ants for food so not very easy to feed. They live all over the US canada and southamerica so they are common wildlife.

You should NEVER keep a wild born animal as a pet its cruel, it will be full of parasites and is likely to get so stressed that it will become ill if it doesnt die. Also you clearly know nothing about reptiles because horny lizards and beardies look nothing like each other, and although captive bred beardies are easy to care for, wild caught ones WONT be. And if you have a horny lizard it will likely die very quick because even expert herpetologists cant keep them alive.
