Hello friends...
How are you today?
hope you guys are fine.

Iguanas are reptiles that have a body length of between 30-40 cm. The iguana's body is covered with rows of scales and forms large spines on its upper body that line up from its neck to its tail.

The iguana's body color tends to be reddish with a characteristic feature, namely having a crest under the jaw. The crest of a male iguana is longer than that of a female.

FOOD
Leaves, flowers, young stems, fruits, insects, eggs, earthworms and other invertebrates.

Reproduce by laying eggs. This large lizard can lay up to 20-70 eggs per year. The incubation period lasts 2-4 months. Iguanas reach sexual maturity around 7 months of age.

Iguanas like to perch on tree branches hanging over the water. So if there is a predator, the iguana will dive into the water and swim away. Apart from that, iguanas also only come down from trees when they enter mating season, lay eggs, or change tree perches.

This animal can use its tail to defend itself from attacks by other animals by wagging and hitting it. Like other types of lizards, iguanas can break off their tails to trick enemies and can grow again within a year, although not as long as before.

breeding habitat Forests, rainforests, gardens, rivers, lakes and swamps.OK, that's all and thank you all for visiting, friends.
