As someone very familiar with the culture of South Florida, "Chicken of the Trees" is also a name for these very cute yet yummy critters. Iguana tacos are good. (Feeling very guilty as one of my best friends has a pet iguana "Buddy", but hey, I have had pet chickens "Elvis and Priscilla" so.. Elvis was a gorgeous RIR rooster)

FatCat--around here in Central Florida, we have iguanas falling out to trees if we have cold snaps! Although I can't say I've ever had iguana myself. I personally don't care for them. One time at Beachside, we had one that somehow got himself stuck between our slider and the screen and had to have one of the guys there come get him out. Nasty buggers!!

Funny memory, Carol. I'm not a major fan of iguanas either although my daughter has one that visits almost on her lanai when she's on island though the bigger it gets, the more she tries to discourage it's visits. It's huge and she often posts photos of it running along the wall in the back of her property. It's bigger than some of the dogs in our family....... We had a huge one that snuck into our BSV unit last November and scared the be-je-sus out of me. It apparently came in under the front door unseen until it revealed itself while scurrying back and forth across the white tiled floor. IMHO it was at least a foot long but DH - who ultimately got it to exit the premises - said it was more like 3-4 inches. He said there was no reason for me to yell like that and made me get down from where I was standing on the sofa. I'm just not a creature type person.
Respectfully,
pat

Oh Carol, my sisters both live in S FL and yes, the stories they tell of finding these catatonic lizards on their property. It's a hoot. Though they have never cooked one up but their doggies might have enjoyed one or two from time to time. I had the iguana tacos in Mexico many many many moons ago when I was young and very foolish but they were good.
