    If you're unarmed, you are a victim

    It's just an iguana. Herbivore. And not that big, a lot of forced perspective. About the same size as a tegu. Tegus can be pretty feisty though.

    But no the reptiles to fear is gators and pythons.

    These are not the pet-size iguanas commonly seen in aquarium tanks, If you look at his hands holding the iguana for size comparison, you can see the perspective isn’t THAT forced. It’s not like Peter Jackson shooting a hobbit movie.

    Dunno, didn't raise mine from a baby as it came from my school. 6ft mofo liked to nap on me. Certainly no rock iggy.

    Wish my tegu had been that tame. And i miss my mini varanus monitors. Wife just didn't like the food for them.

    Maybe get some veggy eating uromastyx. Crazy colors. Shame she's snake phobic, get a chubby lil sand boa.

    So many cool reptiles, thread is just memory laning me.

    Still a good pic, bet he takes great fish pics. He knows how to do it for sure.

    It just seems his hands are disproportionately large...maybe it's just my perspective.

    It was raining iguanas earlier this year. It got cold down there, and they can't tolerate it. Once they warm back up, they climb back in the trees. We are planning a trip to Florida this summer, my 8 and 6 year old wants to go iguana hunting.
