The Mascot for the Sydney 2000 Paralympic Games is Lizzie, the frill-necked lizard.

She was chosen to carry the Paralympic messages of performance, power and pride to both Australian and international audiences.

Her strength, determined will and attitude symbolise all Paralympians. Lizzie's frill is shaped as the map of Australia with its green and gold colours, while her body is the red ochre colour of the land.

Lizzie is available to make appearances to spread the message about the Sydney 2000 Paralympic Games.
