Of all the reptiles running through the hot and dry sand looking for shelter in among trees and cacti, the iguana is the most remarkable.
A fully-grown male can reach a length of 2 meters including his tail.
Should an iguana sense danger, its initial reaction is to change color, then it tries to find a place where it can camouflage better and blend in with its surroundings, if that is not possible they run as fast as possible,and they are surprisingly fast, they raise their bodies off the ground with their legs, and sprint off at an impressive pace, almost seeming to be running on tiptoe.
These precious animals are still being hunted today.
They are mostly relished in soups.
