Maybe ... some lizards are carnivorous. Ours like mustard greens and peas, though.

Interestingly, tuataras are not lizards. They followed a separate and distinct evolutionary path to lizards.

They are absolutely unique: there are no other reptiles like ‘em.

I have had the great privilege to hold a tuatara once, at a wildlife sanctuary. It was one of the coolest experiences I have ever had.
