Title Green iguana Degree of recognition International Media name/outlet Wikipedia Media type Web Date 31/01/11 Description The American pet trade has put a great demand on the green iguana; 800,000 iguanas were imported into the U.S. in 1995 alone, primarily originating from captive farming operations based in their native countries (Honduras, El Salvador, Colombia, and Panama).[35] However, these animals are demanding to care for properly over their lifetime, and many die within a few years of acquisition.[5][36]
