: What I saw yesterday was amazing. I was at the beach here ib Puerto Rico I was lucky enough to go to one that had a river drain into the water. I was looking around a saw a young green iguana that was about 20'' stl. It was very qiuck and dash into the busches and I didn't see anymore. I started to look for other with with a friend helping me. This spot was perfect It has tree right on bank that were that were no more than 40ft. tall. after going to a small forest for about a 100ft. I found a group of iguanas one adult a few breeding size female and some that were to small to sex from a distance but were not hatchlings. I was overly trilled I thouhgt finnally Get to try to caught wild (something I have been wanting to do for many years now). So I went in the semi clears water that just about four feet at its deepest and got right under the tree and my friend climb then One iguana jumped and another both were just out of my reach and then five or six right at the same time. I tought that was it had lost my chance but every tree that was more than 20ft. tall had a group of iguanas of 8+ the lastes roup was about 20 strong. I was suprise to see 2 or 3 4ft. + males in the same tree. It was hard to get an iguanas it was the same for every group the firt few were by themselfs and if not reach by my there were just so fast that it was next to impossible after they hit water and the rest of the group were all at once and I could not consintate on just one. After almost calling it a day and seeing probably well over 100 iguanas my little sister who should up after us spotted one by itself and my friend scared it junped right into my armes. A buetiful female green female with red of her head that was about 13'' svl. I also found lost of feces in the water all looked the same like tortoise poop full of fiber. I release to feamle after showign my father and left. I hope to visit that wondeful place again and attemped to caught a adult male. WeLL I just wanted to share my experince with you iguanas lovers.
