Need your advice re: abandoned 5' green iguana

Posted by Doug in Portland, OR on July 10, 2001 at 23:46:29:

While walking in my garden tonight, I found a giant green iguana that probably was abandoned very recently. From what I learned by visiting a few iguana websites, it appears to have advanced MBD - its back is severely deformed and the ribcage appears to be collapsed. I suspect that its owners gave up on it and just dumped it nearby. I think it probably needs "hospice" services more than rescue or adoption. Do you know of anyone in the Portland area who might be able to help? Or do you have any other suggestions to offer?
