: They can do PLENTY of harm.

: They carry Salmonella, so they can do lotsa harm to small children, "older" people, and people with a weak immune system.

: It's not just a small bite that they can deliver, they can deliver a horrible bite, one that can end up with the loss of a finger. There can be a serious infection from the bite. A good tail thwap can give you a great deal of a bruise.

: I guess my point is...

: Iguana's, as easy as they are to love, as beautiful and cuddly as they can be...

: They are also wild animals, who are very capable of inflicting a serious wound, and so much more. Iguana's, like all animals.. (and sometimes people too!) are unpredictable. You must ALWAYS have your guard on, no matter what. A seemingly calm and tranquil situation can turn nasty in a split second.

: PS: Sorry! I don't mean to make iggy's out as horendous animals, I love them to death! But there's a Hyde to every Jekel.
