Iguana mistaken for large lizard and Run Over by Car

In Alachua County, Florida, an Iguana was mistaken for a large lizard and run over by a car. The Iguana was later found dead on the side of the road. This is not the first time an Iguana has been mistaken for a lizard and killed. In 2014, a man in Davie, Florida, hit an Iguana with his car after mistaking it for a green gecko.

Iguanas are often killed on the side of the road because they are mistaken for other animals. In addition to being mistaken for lizards, Iguanas are also sometimes mistaken for snakes. This can be dangerous for both the Iguana and the driver.

If you see an Iguana on the side of the road, please be careful. Slow down and try to avoid hitting it. If you can't avoid hitting it, please call local authorities so they can come and remove it from the road.

Woman fined for importing iguana into Australia

A woman has been fined for illegally importing an iguana into Australia.

The woman, who has not been named, was caught attempting to smuggle the animal through Sydney Airport.

She faces a fine of up to $110,000.

Iguanas are a species of lizard that is native to Central and South America.

They are a popular pet and can be sold for up to $1,000 in the United States.

However, they are banned from being imported into Australia because they pose a threat to the country's ecology.

Iguanas can grow up to two metres in length and they have a long tail which can inflict a painful bite.

They are also known to eat plants and animals that are native to Australia, which could have a damaging effect on the environment.

Iguana invasion: experts warn of growing population

Iguana populations are growing at an alarming rate in Florida, experts say, and the reptiles could soon become a major pest.

The green iguanas, which are native to Central and South America, have been spotted in increasing numbers in recent years in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties. While they generally aren't aggressive toward humans, they can cause damage to homes and businesses by tearing up plants and digging tunnels.

"They're a very successful species," said Jenny Galle, a wildlife ecologist with the University of Florida's Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences. "They're eating our landscaping, destroying our irrigation systems. They're kind of taking over."

Galle said there are several reasons for the iguanas' population growth. The creatures can reproduce year-round, with females able to lay eggs every month. They also can travel long distances, often crossing roads or swimming through bodies of water to get to new areas. And while they were once hunted for their meat or skin, that is no longer the case.

"People used to kill them because they were seen as a pest," Galle said. "Now that's not really the case anymore."

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) has been working with local governments to develop strategies for managing the iguana population, but officials say it's likely going to be a long-term effort.

"This is something that's not going to happen overnight," said FWC spokesman Rob Klepper. "We're trying to get ahead of it before it becomes a bigger problem."
