The Iguanas Of Galapagos

The best-known of the 13 species of Iguanas is the common, or green, iguana, which occurs from Mexico southward to Brazil. Males of this species reach a maximum length of over 2 metres (6.6 feet) and 6 kg (13.2 pounds). It is often seen basking in the sun on the branches of trees overhanging water, into which it will plunge if disturbed. Food of the common iguana consists largely of leaves, buds, flowers, and fruits of fig trees (genus Ficus), although many other trees are also fed upon. Whereas this lizard has a well-developed digestive system housing bacteria that ferment plant material, it also eats invertebrates when young and has been known to eat small birds and mammals.

Hi Filippo,

great animal, isn't it...i only wonder how close were you when you took this picture...2 meters long lizards would not make me just standing indifferent...i'm not sure but maybe it would work better to show the whole of it;-)...the lizards seem to enjoy the sun very much...cheers, arturo
