I don't think I have decades left to take care of one and my daughter is certainly not going to want to inherit one. It's nice knowing they are cold blooded. If one get loose in the house, just turn the air conditioner down until it gets sluggish and return it to the cage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
953 nut 60,808 #4 Posted Monday at 11:03 PM In South Florida iguanas can be found hanging out in trees and aren't afraid of people. When there is a cold snap they can be found lying on the ground, motionless. Once the sunshine warms them they go back up the tree like nothing had happened. When I lived in Homestead, FL there was an iguana about 18" long living in the cluster of palm trees outside my bedroom window. Came up missing one day, guess someone took him home as a pet. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
