Let me emphasize that iguanas (and all sorts of lizards) are everywhere in Southern parts of Florida.
Anecdote: I once disrupted an ant mound against a wall, and a swarm of lizards came out of hiding to gobble the runners up like a scene out of freakin’ Jurassic Park!
The elites don’t want you to know this, but the iguanas at the park are free. You can take them home: I have 458 iguanas.
You should start eating them before they go stale.
They ain’t called the chicken of the trees for nothing.
I don’t eat my friends.
I know about guy who takes them home and keeps them as pets for a few a weeks and then sets them loose back in the park.
This for real?
Yes you can see it yourself. Though it will mostly happen overnight so you’ll wake up to them dormant at the bottom of a tree.
People eat them and it’s a super easy time to catch them
“Chicken of the trees”
Why would you eat them!? They eat mosquitos!
The gators and snakes slow down too.
We don’t have them in NW Florida, but I dated a girl down south, and yeah, they fall out of trees when it gets cold (for Florida values of cold).
Sometimes they just fall outta the trees because they’re cold blooded and it’s too cold.
Not a lot, but sometimes.
Yeah! They sleep in trees and when it gets in the 40s something about the cold causes their muscles to stop working and they just fall out of the trees.
