Rusty,
That's terrible that iguana had to suffer so much. I also wish it were a lot harder to get iguanas (and burms, retics, etc.) so that people would be more likely to be prepared to actually care for them, like they are with some other reptiles.

How very sad! Speaking of being 'handed out like candy at a carnival', Mark and I were at a small church carnival several years ago and at the game where you win goldfish, they also had baby green iguanas as prizes. Mark won one and fortunately we are animal lovers and took care of him and he's still alive today in great health. I really didn't think he'd survive the night, but he did and I'm glad we were able to give him a good home. I was shocked that they were giving them away like that though......terrible!

Rusty,
I'm very sorry. The poor guy looks like he is in so much pain. I'm glad he is in a better place now.

I agree 10000000%.

Compadres, it is imperative that we crush the freedom fighters before the start of the rainy season. And remember, a shiny new donkey for whomever brings me the head of Colonel Montoya.

That just makes me so mad; why drag it out??? If something came up where I couldn't take care of my pets anymore, I'd have them at a shelter or find a new home before they'd even be hungry for their next meal.
Bottom line is that karma is a B*$&#. What goes around comes around and those people who let that happen to that Iguana will be no exception.

Seriously, I don't understand whats wrong with people.
If you can't take care of an animal atleast put them in a shelter or give them to someone that actually cares.
If only the owners of that little fellow actually felt how much pain he left.

Sorry Rusty. Man, if only you had to havea liscence to own an iguana. Or if you wanted to get one you would have to somehow show that you can care for them properly.

If you have any advice for a new keeper pm me.

If I was king of the world (which I will plan for the future), there would be a need for a liscense for all of the varanids over 6 feet, iguanas, water dragons, caimans, crocodiles, alligators, for all poisounous lizards and snakes, all snakes over 10 feet, all turtles that reach a carapace length of over 2 feet, and for all carnivorous fish.
Yes...
The world will be a great place...
God bless the iguanas!
