Iguana are excellent swimmers and climbers. They are also known as Tree Chickens due to people breeding them for food. As these lizards mature they can become extremely aggressive. With its sharp claws, large mouth and long tail (used in defence as a whip) they are a formidable reptile. The iguana's features bear a resemblance to those of its extinct relatives - the dinosaur.
