  • An herbivore, it has adapted significantly with regard to locomotion and osmoregulation as a result of its diet. It grows to 1.5 meters (4.9 ft) in length from head to tail, although a few specimens have grown more than 2 metres (6.6 ft) with bodyweights upward of 20 pounds (9.1 kg). Commonly found in captivity as a pet due to its calm disposition and bright colours, it can be very demanding to care for properly. Space requirements and the need for special lighting and heat can prove challenging to an amateur hobbyist.
  • The Green Iguana (Iguana iguana) is an arboreal species of lizard that is native to Central and South America. The Green Iguana ranges over a large geographic area, from southern Brazil and Paraguay to as far north as Mexico and the Carribean Islands; and in the United States as feral populations in South Florida (including the Florida Keys), Hawaii, and the Rio Grande Valley of Texas.

The Green Iguana ranges over a large geographic area, from southern Brazil and Paraguay to as far north as Mexico and the Carribean Islands; and in the United States as feral populations in South Florida (including the Florida Keys), Hawaii, and the Rio Grande Valley of Texas. This lizard is commonly kept as a pet by hobbyists due to its bright colors, calm personality and large size, however it can be very demanding to care for properly, such as requiring a large amount of space for it to roam and special lighting and heating needs, and is recommended only for skilled reptile owners. The green iguana will, if nessasary, use its tail like a whip if threatened and gnash out with its leaf shaped teeth.
