The green iguana was not here when I was growing up. They were imported as pets and then released. They have created havoc in South Florida because they are voracious herbivores and are especially fond of fruits. They get huge...like five or six feet! They are so cold intolerant that when the temps dip in winter they seize up and fall out of trees. lol It's not unusual to go for a neighborhood walk and be standing under a tree that's moving about. Look up and you might see something from Jurassic Park right over your head!
