Bear in mind it is not cold enough to kill them. But the ones that didn't pick a good branch? Plop lol
 This dude was trying to get to the grass but had no energy. He wouldn't move at all. Fully alive but unable to even flinch.

Aren't those things considered pests? Good time to get rid of a few.

Remember a few winters ago seeing stories about gators poking their snouts up through the ice in ponds. Gators evolved in places where it gets cold and can adapt.
Iguanas not so much I guess. What round for chilled iguana? Probably a .22 air rifle would do it pretty well.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Racoon and coyote feast day...hope it kills off the other invasive species of reptiles. Coyotes feed on them behind my house. My dog eats them too. Some are wary of dogs eating them. Bur mine has eaten a few dozen at this point no problems. But he also eats cat shit with no ill effects. Nasty fucker |

The Pythons in the everglades need a clean up on isle 87 for sure....doubt this will do them in though. I lived in South FL for 10 years, saw a few Iguanas but I guess after I left this became the norm. I used to have geckos all over my house, little bastards are not shy to bite if you trap them (this is a no shit sherlock moment though... ).I agree Iguanas are an invasive species but what are they doing that makes them so harmful? |

A long time friend from Guatemala says they eat the tails roasted / fried, and use other meaty parts in a stew. Regular table fare where he grew up. He said they would hunt them with .22 cal rifles, and tried to get a head shot for the kill, to preserve as much meat as possible.

I cant really grow and food because of them. They eat everything I plant except Brazilian spinach. Main problem is they take over burrow owl holes. Those owl are great pest control.

Quote HistoryQuoted: I agree Iguanas are an invasive species but what are they doing that makes them so harmful? They eat leafy greens, vegetables, and fruit.
