DUW - New rescue intake, What Am I

PHFaust Jun 28, 2012 02:36 PM

Ok, I know we are an iguana, but we are so insanely twisty it isnt funny. This pooper just came to me last night from another rescue that I work with for some stuff. He came to them through Animal Control. No history is known, but obviously this is a pretty severe case of MBD. Slight muscle tremors are visible, so not quite sure if I will be able to turn him around. We shall see!

So now the question remains. What species is this? WOW.
