Spiney tails are endangered???

Cody- Visit www.iguanasociety.org and read all about the other species.

Greens are probably the only iguana species that is prolific. All the rest (usually classified under Cycluras) are endangered in one way or the other.

If you look around the site, you will see many articles about them.

Also, check out www.cyclura.com to see all the info on iguana conservation efforts.

The published list of endangered cyclura is long, probably 16-20 in all.

Don't forget the Fiji Island iguanas! Arguably the most beautiful of the iguana species. And also VERY endangered.

I think Grand Cayman blue iguanas are awesome! If they weren't endangered and were legal in the U.S. I would definitely have one. (And a greeny)

Mark don't you know! All you have to do is to keep one in a 10 gal tank with a heat rock and only feed it one cricket every 3 days.
Ducking and running for cover! While dodging thrown items.

And in case someone didn't get it
IT'S A JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Running and Ducking? To post that here you better also be wearing full kevlar body armor and carry a riot shield...

Can we say bonsai cats? I do have a recently emptied Jack Daniels bottle.

I just remembered, the 2005 Reptiles USA Annual has a section devoted to all the ig species. I think it give basic care on each of them too. If I remember correctly, there were some red-flags on the green ig care, though.
