I myself unfortunately know of two family friends that actually drove from Va to FL specifically to dump pets, both green iguanas. Now, this was done back in the late 80's or early 90's, so the invasive issue was not as well known...It makes me sad to think that people can just dump pets like that. Mine are part of my family and I would be devastated if they got out / got lost. There is NO way I could even consider that.
