Iguanas are often thought to be green but
that is not always the case. They vary in color from blue,
brown and green. They also tend to have dark strips on their
body and tail. They are like the Chameleon because they
can change their body color. The Chameleon uses this change
to protect it from predators but the Iguana changes color
because they want to attract more light.
They will also become darker if they are stressed or frightened.
Iguanas can see above, below, behind, and in front of them.
They also can see into the higher wavelengths beyond what
humans can see. They also have very powerful ears so you
should never play loud stereos or televisions near them.
Their hearing is far more sensitive then human hearing.
