10 Mind-Blowing Facts About Green Iguanas
Here are 10 short and interesting facts about green iguanas:
Third Eye – Green iguanas have a parietal eye on top of their heads, which detects light and movement, helping them sense predators from above.
Vegetarian Diet – Unlike many other lizards, green iguanas are strict herbivores, feeding on leaves, flowers, and fruits.
Excellent Swimmers – They can swim using a side-to-side body motion, holding their breath for up to 30 minutes!
Whip-like Tails – Their long tails make up about two-thirds of their body length and can be used as a powerful whip for self-defense.
Color-Changing Abilities – While not as dramatic as chameleons, green iguanas can change shades depending on temperature, mood, and health.
Super Climbers – Equipped with sharp claws and strong limbs, they are expert tree climbers and spend most of their time high up in the canopy.
Tail Drop Survival – Juvenile iguanas can shed part of their tail to escape predators, though adults lose this ability as they grow.
Nose-Squirting Defense – They excrete excess salt through specialized nasal glands, sometimes appearing as a sneeze or spray.
Fast Growers – Hatchlings are only around 8 inches long but can grow up to 6 feet in length over time!
Long Lifespan – With proper care in captivity, green iguanas can live for over 20 years, though wild ones typically have shorter lives due to predators and environmental threats.
