Twenty-one of the infected people whom health officials interviewed revealed that they owned or had touched bearded dragons in the week before they got ill.

Health investigators collected feces samples from a bearded dragon of one of the affected people.

Bearded dragons can carry salmonella germs in their excretions.

People with weak and compromised immune systems should also not have a bearded dragon, since these classes of people have a higher risk of falling ill from the germs the animals carry.
