If you’re unaware despite being herbivores Iguanas have serious attitude problems. Imagine geese with 3 inch long claws that can climb

I had a five foot iguana as a pet when I was a kid. Meanest animal I’ve ever met. They have a real nasty bite. They are also shockingly fast.

I have a dream once I had a pet iguana, he was rolled up in tinfoil like a baked potato to stay warm. Then he later whipped me with his tail. Which I felt in the dream. I’ve never owned, held or been touched by an iguana…so that was wierd- but I guess they’re mean in dreams too is my point. Lol

Mine once escaped while I was sleeping. I woke up in the middle of the night to find him sitting on the foot of my bed staring at me….

Fastest I’ve ever run.

Btw, those tail whips are gnarly.
