A Thorny devil lives in the desert and semi-arid outback regions of Australia. It thrives in sandy or sandy loam regions where it is camouflaged against the ground, and where the main vegetation is spinifex or sparse mallee scrub.
The thorny devil, which is also sometimes known as the Moloch, is mostly found in the western two-thirds of the continent, through Western Australia, the Northern Territory and South Australia.
