Have fun spotting our resident iguanas! Prudence & Bennie are green iguanas, originating from South America. Prudence was donated to the Butterfly Farm about 8 years ago, and Bennie was donated in 2020. They like to hide up in the trees and bask in the warmth on top of the heaters where they like to keep a watchful eye on the goings on below! Be cautious of droppings if you are walking underneath them! They are magnificent creatures and excellent swimmers and love to fed on leaves, flowers and fruit.
Bennie decided to come down from his high perch and pose for the visitors. Isn’t he gorgeous!
Lovely.
The posing or the poo?
The poosing.
HaHa
What sort of size were these gorgeous creatures, Cherie?
He was about 3 to 4ft in length including his tail.
Oh my, Cherry. That thought makes me shudder with dread! Actually, I think monkeys are “nasty” like that, too?? But look at how beautiful they are!
I know what you mean about monkies! The iguana had no intention of getting anywhere near anyone he was on a food finding mission but stopped occasionally to pose for the crowd.
Lovely photos. I will remember not to stand under them if I ever visit again!!
There is an archway above this sign and this is the place to be careful!
Great title !
The sign made me smile
Although I didn’t notice it on my first visit to the butterfly farm…
Oh, we do have water monitor lizards roaming freely in our local parks in Malaysia.
They make these iguanas look so tiny.
The size of the Iguanas is big enough for me
Ha ha… we do have tiny lizards called house geckoes.
They can be found in almost every household, some people regard them as pest.
I don’t think I would welcome them as a house guest in the same way that spiders are not welcome!
