My present entrance with a portrait of a marine iguana. This lizard remains unchanged for several million years only on the Galapagos Islands.
Despite its frightening appearance, marine iguanas are herbivorous reptiles.
The basis of their diet is seaweed and plants. To get themselves food, iguanas sometimes dive to a depth of 10 to 15 meters, where juicy stems are torn off. They also scrape off algae from coastal stones, using sharp teeth for this. With algae, a significant amount of salt enters the lizard's body, to get rid of which the iguanas have a very unusual way: they sneeze, throwing salt out with the flow of air.
