How many things can you find wrong with this picture????
"They're inexpensive and easy to care for and live happy, placid lives for up to 10 years."
I don't think they are easy to care for. And my ig is going on 15 yrs now, and from what I've been told he'll most likely live for close to 25 years.
"Iguanas are slow creatures who like to spend their days basking in the sunshine."
I don't know about that, I've seen many iguanas run pretty fast.
"Iguanas are herbivores, although they will eat some small bugs."
Since when?
"Small children can also be hurt by the iguana's long tail and sharp teeth."
Yea, and that goes for anyone.
"It's best not to give an iguana to a dog owner, since most canines see iguanas as prey and will attack them."
That all depends. If it were a small dog, I'd think the ig would probably do more damage. But in my case, never had a problem with the dog and ig. They sleep in the same bed.
