Adopting an Iguana

J-Meister Oct 11, 2003 01:34 AM

Hi everyone! I'm in the Pittsburgh area and I'm actively pursuing an Iguana to adopt. If ANYBODY has any info at all as to how I would go about doing that, I would love it if you could e-mail me or post back here. Thank you SO much.

The MARS Rescue doesn't ship, but if you're willing to drive, try http://www.reptileinfo.com and e-mail rescue@reptileinfo.com, located in Baltimore.

If you can make it out to the All Ohio show in Columbus there's always an iguana adpotion society with a table there.

Brian: Are you sure it was a book? Are you sure it wasn't NOTHING?

I'm told that Pittsburgh has a herp society. Try http://www.anapsid.org to see if they're listed or if there's one closer to you. Also watch the classifieds section of any newspaper - there are always iguanas being given away.

Hello,

Your best bet (I'm hoping they're on Phwyvern's list) is to contact the GREEN IQUANA SOCIETY. They specialize in adoptions and are world-wide.

Good Luck,
