Description
Safari 27629 Green Iguana.
Green iguanas are found across northern South America and through Central America as far as Mexico and the Caribbean. They are found in tropical rain forests and spend a lot of time in the trees (they are arboreal), where they are superbly camouflaged. With their long sharp claws they are excellent climbers. They prefer areas near water and have been seen to dive straight from a tree branch into a stream. During the day, green iguanas bask in the sun to warm up.
The Iguana is eaten in South America.
The Green Iguana has sweeter flesh than the Black Iguana.
The Black Iguana is preferred.
Supplied in a pouch closed with a drawstring.
