Iguana as a pet

Have you ever thought about having an iguana as a pet? It may sound unusual but it is not that uncommon.

The green iguana due to its calm disposition is one of the most popular reptile pets. It is native to tropical areas of south and Central America and it can grow to 2 metres in length if well fed and taken care of. Their life expectancy is 10 – 15 years.

However, a potential owner should think well if such an animal is an appropriate pet for him.
