Iguanas are animals like lizards that live in tropical regions such as Central America, South America, and the Caribbean. Iguana was first mentioned by an Austrian naturalist Josephus Nicolaus Laurenti in 1768.

Iguanas belong to a unique animal that is able to adapt to its environment including its food, iguanas can become insectivorous eaters, meat-eaters and plant-eaters. Many of them belong to a land iguana who likes to be on the tree even though there are also iguanas living on the cliffs of the seaside (sea iguana). all kinds of iguanas thrive by laying (ovipar). [2]

Actually, Iguanas do not belong to dangerous animals, but if in dangerous situations and conditions, iguana uses its tail as a whip to drive out the enemy.

Nice photos, especially the photos above. Almost all the sides of this animal, I see quite unique, especially the skin on the shoulders, and also claws. Looks like the iguana is friendly enough, does not look scary to the people who approached him. Thank you for sharing a steady photo, @azirgraff
