==Conservation== The [[International Union for Conservation of Nature]] lists the frilled lizard as of [[Least-concern species|least concern]], due to its abundance and wide range, but warns that its population may be locally declining in some areas. It is a popular species in the pet trade, which may threaten some wild populations. Most pet lizards appear to come from Indonesia, as export of them is banned in [[Australia]] and [[Papua New Guinea]].<ref name="iucn status 19 November 2021"/> Nevertheless, the Indonesian government themselves have allocated the frilled lizard as a protected species under the Article 20 of the Environment and Forestry Ministerial Regulation On Types of Protected Plants and Animals.<ref>{{cite web |title=''Peraturan Menteri Lingkungan Hidup dan Kehutanan Nomor P.106/Menlhk/Setjen/Kum.1/12/2018 tentang Perubahan Kedua Atas Peraturan Menteri Lingkungan Hidup dan Kehutanan Nomor P.20/Menlhk/Setjen/Kum.1/6/2018 tentang Jenis Tumbuhan dan Satwa Yang Dilindungi '' |url=https://www.mongabay.co.id/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Permen-Jenis-Satwa-dan-Tumbuhan-Dilindungi.pdf |publisher=[[Ministry of Environment and Forestry]] |language=id |via=[[Mongabay]] |date=Dec 28, 2018}}</ref> Being difficult to breed in captivity, many presumed captive bred lizards are likely to have been taken from the wild. Frilled lizards may also be threatened by [[Feral cat|feral cats]],<ref name="iucn status 19 November 2021"/> though they do not appear to be significantly affected by the invasive [[cane toad]].<ref>{{cite journal|last1=Ujvari|first1=B.|last2=Shine|first2=R.|last3=Madsen|first3=T.|year=2011|title=Detecting the impact of invasive species on native fauna: Cane toads (''Bufo marinus''), frillneck lizards (''Chlamydosaurus kingii)'' and the importance of spatial replication|journal=Austral Ecology|volume=36|issue=2|pages=126β130|doi=10.1111/j.1442-9993.2010.02126.x|bibcode=2011AusEc..36..126U}}</ref>
