Species Description: The green iguana, Iguana iguana is a popular pet trade species not native to Florida, but increasingly encountered as an escaped exotic in the southern half of the state. I. iguana is variable in color, young animals being bright green and then becoming more uniform grayish green in color with age. Green iguanas also have a limited ability to alter color based on mood or social interaction or in response to environmental conditions, with males exhibiting more color variation than females (Frye 1995). Potentially Misidentified Species: Although a growing assortment of exotic iguanids, polychrotids (anoles), geckonids (geckos), and other non-native lizards are now encountered in Florida, relatively few of these could be easily misidentified as

Captive Care of the Giant Green Iguana (Iguana iguana) By Edward M. Craft Introduction: The (giant) green iguana is an arboreal (tree living), diurnal (daytime active), lizard that is found in Central and South America. It is by far the most popular of all reptile species currently being kept in captivity. These lizards are herbivorous (plant eating) and require a plant diet that is high in Calcium and low in Phosphorus. With proper care iguanas can live for up to 15 years and grow to a total body length of 6 feet. It is for this reason that the term giant is used in the title. Often times potential iguana owners visit their local pet store to purchase a cute little baby iguana only to find out that when it reaches its full adult size that it has become too much reptile to handle or house. For this reason it is important to be sure that before purchasing a green iguana that you are prepared to care for and house this animal for the rest of its life. Selection: Housing: Lighting: Temperature: Humidity: Diet: Supplementation: If iguanas are fed the proper diet of dark leafy greens and provided with the proper POTZ then NO supplementation is needed. In fact supplementing an iguana on this diet can lead to health problems related to over supplementation. Most commercially sold supplements for reptiles contain calcium and phosphorous and should NOT be used since phosphorous should be avoided. The easiest way to provide your iguana with the vitamins and minerals that it needs is to provide a proper diet from the start. Supplements are not a good source of vitamins and minerals since the amount of vitamins and minerals cannot be accurately measured in powdered or liquid supplements and it is very easy to give too little or too much. Avoid spray-on vitamin supplements since vitamins cannot be absorbed through the skin. This is just a waste of your money and time. If this were the case the animal would be able to absorb water through its skin which is not physically possible in iguanas.

View other movie reviews Find a movie: Dancing at the Blue Iguana Okay, so the one big lesson learned after watching Dancing at the Blue Iguana is that strippers have a hard life. Boo-hoo, nothing new there. Another, lesser lesson learned is to leave the screenwriting to screenwriters. Dancing at the Blue Iguana does have two credited screenwriters, director Michael Radford ( B. Monkey Il Postino ) and David Linter, but credit also goes to the actresses. Before production began, Radford had the principal actresses, Darryl Hannah, Jennifer Tilly, Charlotte Ayanna, Sheila Kelley, Sandra Oh, and Kristin Bauer, sit down in workshops and help to develop their characters' stories. So each actress is primarily responsible for what happens to her corresponding character in the finished product. Radford took each of the stories and molded them together, with the main setting as The Blue Iguana, a seedy strip club in Los Angeles. While many of these actresses may be good at acting, they have much to learn when it comes to writing. Most of the stories fall victim to various stereotypes, causing the entire movie to be fairly uninteresting. Radford haphazardly strings them together. Angel (Hannah

July, 1998 - Age 2 weeks? Hi, I'm the largest reptile in the Ziring household, and my name is Kiwi. Sometimes, feeders used to call me 'Shortstop' because I looked like Mike Bordick (former shortstop for the Baltimore Orioles). More recently, they've started calling me 'The Desolator' because I like to have a bit of fun moving knick-knacks around while they're out of the house. When I was little, I was very timid, but now that I've reached adult size, my male nature has emerged: I'm bold, outgoing, and lazy. You can follow my growth in the chart and graphs below.

Dolly's Iguana/Komodo Dragon Corner! Yes, from the Green Iguana to Komodo Dragons. I can honestly say, not in my wildest dreams did I ever think I would be nearly ran over by a Komodo dragon! While living on Komodo Island the first rule was do not disturb any Komodo dragons. This was their island and we were only visitors. Let dragons sleep! I followed that rule. However, when male dragon decides to enter another male dragons domain the best advice I can offer is move or walk quickly carrying a dragon stick! I thought walking through the Costa Rican, Rain Forest was exciting. There is NO place in the world like Rinca Island, Flores Island, Padar Island and mainly Komodo Island, Indonesia. Our dear friend Sir Joko Tirtono the 'FIRST' person in the world to breed Komodo Monators in captivity at the Gembira Loka Zoological and Botanical Garden in Yogyakarta was my assignment to interview for the magazine. It was so exciting to meet a real 'Knight' a 'Prince' and the Sultan of Yogyakarta. I must say it was a thrill of a lifetime! Having a baby Komodo Monitor/Dragon named after me was an honor, that I have taken seriously. Go to Page 2 Go to Page 3 Go to Page 4 Go to Page 5 ... www.HERP INDEX.com

99. Metabolic Bone Disease Does It Really Exist? An article providing clarification about this metabolic condition. http://www.angelfire.com/al/repticare3/

"METABOLIC BONE DISEASE" Does It Really Exist? (Two juvenile iguanas with symptoms of both osteodystrophy fibrosa and nutritional secondary hyperparathyroidism. Note the carpal walking and swollen jaws.) by Edward M. Craft A calcium deficiency can lead to what is commonly referred to as Metabolic Bone Disease and it is the most commonly seen problem in captive reptiles. This condition is a 100% preventable condition if fed a proper diet. The signs and symptoms most commonly associated with this condition are softness or swelling in the jaws and limbs of the reptile, skeletal deformities or walking on the wrists rather than the toes. "Metabolic Bone Disease" is NOT a true disease of reptiles. Instead it is a common term given to a group of disorders with similar symptoms. The conditions that are often mis-labeled as MBD are osteodystrophy fibrosa, nutritional secondary hyperparathyroidism, renal secondary hyperparathyroidism, rickets, osteomalacia, and osteoporosis. The conditions most often referred to as MBD are nutritional secondary hyperparathyroidism or hypocalcemia. (Note the swollen right femur of this juvenile iguana. This may be a symptom of hypocalcemia.)
