McLauglin, Kolokithas and Swickerath sought to revive The Iguanas in 1996 after the release of some of their early music.This page was last modified 14:14, 26 November 2007.See Copyrights for details.For other members of the family Iguanidae, see Iguanidae.For other uses, see Iguana (disambiguation).Lesser Antillean Iguana, I.Iguana is a genus of lizard native to tropical areas of Central and South America and the Caribbean first described by Austrian naturalist Josephus Nicolaus Laurenti in his book Specimen Medicum, Exhibens Synopsin Reptilium Emendatam cum Experimentis circa Venena in 1768.The word "Iguana" is derived from a Spanish form of the original Taino name for the species "Iwana".An iguana uses its eyes to navigate through winding threes trees and confusing forests, as well as finding food.As mentioned above, iguanas have a Parietal eye on the top center of their head.For example if a hungry bird is flying over head, the iguana will detect it's shadow and have a head start in front of the predator.Hearing

The green iguana is a reptile found throughout Central and South America.Unfortunately, these same individuals are critical to the reproductive success of the species.Their skin is rough,
with a set of pointy scales along the iguana's back.Green iguanas have long
fingers and claws to help them climb and grasp.Adaptations: Besides the long fingers and claws mentioned above, green
iguanas have many excellent interesting adaptations.Green iguanas have good
senses of hearing and smell, and superb vision.Their long tail is also
quite sharp, and is snapped in the air as a defense mechanism.If they are etected however, and need to escape
quickly, these iguanas can dive from trees into water, and swim well.Male green iguanas have a special flap of skin called the
dewlap.In other words, if it is cold, the iguana is cold too.Reproductive Cycle and Family Habits: Green iguanas tend to live alone, but
may be seen in groups occasionally in good sunny basking spots.After female iguanas lay the eggs, they leave them and do not return.When iguana babies hatch, they grow up without care from their parents.They
tend to eat mostly plants, though, especially leaves and fruits.Although many
pet iguanas are now being raised on iguana farms, capture from the wild has
lowered their numbers.Unfortunately, these laws are not enforced
very well.Many people are trying to develop protected areas for the
iguanas, and to educate local populations about the importance of
conservation.Some of these educational programs help local populations find
new ways of using the land, without permanantly destroying it.For example,
for people who want to continue to eat the green iguana, programs are being
developed to raise these animals for food, instead of hunting wild ones.Tony Garel, at the Belize Zoo and Tropical Education Center, is woking on
one such project to conserve the iguanas and educate local communities Tony
has used captive breeding techniques to increase green iguana populations,
and has released some of these iguanas into the wild.Click on the iguanas to see their pages..."Click here to view our
