Katrina,



You dont HAVE to but that is the primary animal in shelters.



No you dont have to take the iguanas, but the shelters will look at the rescues who regularly help with them first when they get the more adoptable animals in such as beardies, corn snakes, ect...





Shelters need the most help with iguanas plain and simple. Occasionally I do get RES in but not that often. And I cover basically the entire state. That does exclude the recent raid of a store where I got the call to help with 76 baby res all smaller than a quarter. You run a specialty rescue, not really an all species reptile rescue. Specialty rescues are set up a bit different. Kinda like dog breed rescues. They only take in a certain breed or type of animal, rather than covering the whole spectrum.
