Iguana
- St. Croix, Virgin Islands
The Iguana
is a type of lizard native to tropical areas and can
be found throughout the US Virgin Islands and the Lesser
Antilles. The Lesser Antillean Iguana, which is
endemic to the US Virgin Islands, is endangered due to
habitat destruction. Some may seem friendly because
they are used to tourists feeding them, but beware,
they can be nasty! When threatened they will use their
spiny tail as a whip.
