A Good Pet?

Green iguanas also called common iguanas are native to Mexico, and


South America but they are kept as pets in many other places as well.


The green iguana can grow up to six feet in length.  Unlike other lizards


that have difculty digesting plants the iguana feeds on fruit flowers and


leaves.  Since iguanas are use to high temperatures pets must be provided


with a heated lamp or rock at all times.  Many people have enjoyed this


unusual pet however as a result of their capture for the pet trade iguanas


are in danger of extinction in many places.
