Iguanas

Iguanas

Iguanas are well-proportioned lizards and most are typically "lizard-like" in appearance. They range in size from three inches to six feet long. The tail is usually longer than the body. They are almost totally restricted to the New World, except for two genera in Madagascar and one genus in Polynesia. They may be insectivorous, carnivorous, herbivorous or omnivorous depending upon the species and stage of life. The majority lay eggs that are soft-shelled and buried underground. They are found in habitats ranging from tropical forests to deserts and even along the seashore.
I worked with a Mexican National that told me he had eaten Iguanas and they tasted like chicken. I will take his word for it.
