The Jamaican iguana is a large lizard native to the island of Jamaica. It is primarily found in the dry forests and coastal areas of the island. This species is known for its distinctive green coloration and can grow up to 5 feet long. The Jamaican iguana primarily feeds on leaves, flowers, and fruits. Once considered critically endangered, the Jamaican iguana has made a comeback due to conservation efforts. Habitat loss and predation by invasive species, such as cats and rats, have historically threatened its population. Today, ongoing conservation programs aim to protect this unique reptile and its natural habitat.
