Best Answer

There is no such creature as an "American Thorny Devil".

Thorny devils are native to Australia. The only North American lizards even distantly related are the horned lizards belonging to the genus Phrynosoma.

Thorny devils do not shoot blood out of their eyes. The Texas Horned lizard, Coast horned lizard, and at least two other species, none of which are Thorny devils, will shoot blood from their eyes as a defence mechanism.
