Green iguana Iguana iguana@Sungei Buloh by dominator



Green iguana (Iguana iguana) spotted at Sungei Bulohhttp://forums.clubsnap.org/showthread.php?t=164452

I will be excited as well if its just Calotes versicolor I see day in day out and I see this! Be careful though it might be mildly venomous.Here's another sighting http://pachome2.pacific.net.sg/~tanghb/Green_Iguana.html . I was disappointed though when I found out that these are all exotics. Hmmm seems like there are more and more of these released from the chat going on in that clubsnap thread. Anyway for more info check out the Singapore Zoological Gardens Docents' info trove.
