Iguana Found Wandering in the Street!
Iguana enthusiasts everywhere rejoiced this week when a wild iguana was discovered wandering the streets of Miami! This event is considered a major milestone in the history of iguana conservation and could mark a change in the way people view these creatures.
As word of the iguana's presence spread, social media feeds were quickly filled with pictures and videos of the exotic animal. One passerby even managed to get close enough to pet it!
Naturally, many people had questions about the iguana. Where did it come from? How did it get loose? What will happen to it now?
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) has been working hard to answer these questions and more. So far, they believe that the iguana is a lost pet that managed to escape from its home. They are currently working with the owner to try and reunite them.
In the meantime, officials are warning people not to approach or touch the iguana as they assess their options for what to do with it. Iguanas are not native to Florida and can be dangerous if they feel threatened.

Iguana Stolen from Local Pet Store!
Residents in the town of West Egg are in a frenzy after Iguana, a beloved pet store lizard, was stolen from its cage early Tuesday morning.
Authorities are asking for the public's help in locating the lizard, who is described as being green with black stripes and a long tail. Iguana is approximately two feet long and is valued at $800.
"We're all very upset about this," said Marcia Bloom, owner of Iguana. "I don't know who would want to steal my poor little Iguana."
Bloom said that she had left the store briefly on Monday evening around 7pm and when she returned, Iguana was gone from its cage. She believes that the thief entered through an unlocked door.
Local residents are shocked by the theft and are doing everything they can to help find Iguana.
"I can't believe that someone would steal a lizard," said resident Harry Tulip. "It just doesn't make any sense. I hope they catch whoever did this soon."
If you have any information about the whereabouts of Iguana, please contact your local authorities.
Woman Attacked by Iguana While Walking her Dog!
A woman out for a walk with her dog was attacked by an iguana Tuesday morning.
The woman, who wishes to remain anonymous, said she was taking her black labrador retriever for a routine walk in Westerville when the iguana came out of nowhere.
"I heard this strange hissing noise and before I knew it, the iguana was on top of me," she told reporters. "It was biting my arms and legs and I could feel its scales scratching my skin."
Fortunately, the woman's dog intervened, biting the iguana until it released its grip on her. The startled animal then ran into a nearby wooded area.
Police are urging anyone who sees the iguana to contact them immediately. They believe the animal may be infected with a dangerous virus.
In the meantime, the victim is being treated for numerous lacerations and bite marks. She is expected to make a full recovery.
Iguana Spotted on Top of Local Bank!
An iguana was spotted on the top of a local bank this morning, drawing a small crowd of onlookers. The iguana seemed to be sunning itself and showed no signs of wanting to leave its perch.
Local residents were surprised to see the reptile in such an urban environment. "I've never seen anything like it before," said one woman. "It's just so odd."
Veterinarians were called to the scene but determined that there was nothing they could do; the iguana appeared to be healthy and well-fed. Officials from the bank said they did not know how the iguana got up there and were working with animal control to find a way to remove it.
In the meantime, spectators can continue to visit the bank and take pictures of the exotic visitor.
Man Arrested for Possession of Iguana without a Permit
A man in Florida was recently arrested for possession of an Iguana without a permit. The man, who has not been identified, was found with the Iguana in his car. It is unclear why the man did not have a permit for the Iguana, but it is possible that he planned to use the animal for illegal purposes.
This is not the first time that someone has been arrested for possession of an Iguana without a permit. In fact, there have been several cases of this in recent years. In many cases, people attempt to smuggle Iguanas into the United States without proper documentation.
Iguanas can be dangerous animals and they require special care and attention. They can also be very costly to care for properly. This is why it is important to have a permit before owning one of these animals.
If you are caught possessing an Iguana without a permit, you could face serious penalties. You could be fined or even sent to prison. It is important to comply with all laws regarding exotic animals and to get the proper permits before owning one of these animals.
