The impressive Green Iguana is one of the most popular lizards in the Americas.

Native to Central America and the northern part of South America, this lizard can grow as large as 1.5m! Brightly coloured and docile in nature, Green Iguanas, also called Common Iguanas, have become a popular pet in North America.

Unfortunately they’re not as easy to care for as many believe, as they require a special diet, consistent sun and high temperatures. This Green Iguana was photographed in it’s natural habitat in Honduras.
