Iguanas are arboreal.  They are good swimmers, jumpers, diggers and baskers.  The Caribbean islanders call them tree or bamboo chickens and say (surprise!) they taste just like that poultry.

Aruba

Where do you find an abundance of wild iguanas on Aruba?  Take a stroll through the grounds of the Renaissance Hotel in Oranjestad.

Here are all the generations, from tender babe to grumpy old codger.

Belize

Who knew adult male green iguanas on Belize are orange and females are red?

If you visit the Mayan ruins at Xunantunich you may meet an iguana who has learned to ride the river ferry from her riverside basking spot across to visit the shopkeepers for veggie handouts.

Grand Cayman

In addition to rare blue iguanas, Grand Cayman has a feral population of green iguanas as well.  They are a different species and do not even speak the same iguana head-bob language.

Key West, Florida

This iguana has seen it all from his sidewalk perch on Duval Street.

St. Thomas, USVI

Iguanas on St. Thomas have bright pink lips.

You will find them grazing in grassy fields and basking on rocks by the water.  Don't forget to look up.  One might be just over your head.

Devil's Island, French Guiana

The great-great-great-great grandfathers of these iguanas watched ragged French prisoners struggle to exist on this infamous island. 

These two live in the old cistern.
