In Reply to: International Iguana Society writes about my Iguana Fund to save endangered iguanas!!! posted by M.Eguro on October 19, 1999 at 16:29:01:

: Hi everyone!!!

: Very very good news, the International Iguana Society published a short
: blurb about my "Blue Iguana Fund" in their winter 1999 issue of Iguana Times!
: In the previous page of the same issue, there is a great article written by
: Blue Iguana Fund supporter and fellow iguana lover, John Aristei, be sure to check it out!!

:
: This year's donation will be much greater than last years, despite the fact that Sapphire and I had to
: pull out of one of our fundraising shows/educational displays at the last minute due to her severe gravidness, we have already raised
: more money than last year and I still have a few more months to go before I travel
: out to Cuba and the Cayman Islands to check up on those darn Iguanas again!!

:
: Here is the article, many sincere thanks to everyone who participated, with special thanks
: to Des Wong, David Blair, John Aristei, and Joel Freish. Also many thanks to Mike Ripca.

: Iguana Lovers Unite over the Internet!

: Iguana lovers united over the internet to help raise money for the critically endangered Grand
: Cayman Blue IGuana (Cyclura nubila lewisi).

: International Iguana Society member, MARIE EGURO of Los Angeles, CA, made home videos
: of her pet green iguana documenting the entire egglaying process to help other pet owners deal with
: their gravid iguanas. She sold these videos over the internet, and the profits from these sales as well
: as other donations were given to Grand Cayman's National Trust to help their Blue Iguana Captive
: Breeding Facility. Through this fundraising, a $300 donation was given to the breeding facility in the
: spring of 1999. Next year's goal is $500!!

: The Blue Iguana, Cyclura nubila lewisi, is one of the most critically endangered lizards in the
: world, numbering less than 100 individuals in the wild. The Captive Breeding Facility directed by
: Fred Burton (Scientific Program Manager), releases captive bred pureblooded lewisi into protected
: areas for endemic Cayman Island wildlife. The Facility also educates the public about the importance
: of preserving native flora and fauna for future generations. They are in need of cage repairs as well as
: manpower to care for the iguanas, and can use any help they can get. If you are interesting in
: purchasing an Iguana Egglaying home video, please visit:
