Iguana Verde

Description: The green iguana (Iguana iguana) is a species of reptile characterized by its vibrant green color, although it can also display shades ranging from light green to gray. This reptile is native to the tropical regions of Central and South America, as well as some Caribbean islands. Green iguanas are known for their robust bodies, long tails, and triangular heads, giving them a distinctive appearance. Their diet is primarily herbivorous, feeding on leaves, flowers, and fruits, making them important seed dispersers in their ecosystem. Additionally, they have a remarkable ability to adapt to different habitats, from dense jungles to urban areas. They are often found in trees, where they spend much of their time basking in the sun and foraging for food. The green iguana is also famous for its social behavior, as it can be seen in groups, especially during the mating season. However, its population has declined in some areas due to habitat loss and hunting, leading to conservation efforts to protect this iconic species of reptiles.
