Cabal, in the lower right hand side of the image map below, was the first iguana his human ever owned. He had a rough life dealing with improper dietary information and the results thereof. He had broken both his arms at one point, but in the past 3 ye ars he had improved greatly overcoming Metabolic Bone Disease and graduating from an aggressive cage-bound iguana to a full-fledged free roamer. Cabal was purchased from a pet store in the fall of 1993 as a hatchling.
Pandora, in the upper left hand side of the image map below, was a rescued iguana that came to live with Odysseus, Penelope and Cabal in the fall of 1997. She was gravid when she arrived, but during her quarantine time she reabsorbed her eggs. She adju sted quickly to a proper diet and the opportunity to free roam. Throughout her stay with them, she improved greatly becoming more socialized and healthy. She had grown approximately 8" in total length after recovering from Metabolic Bone Disease (which ca used her jaw to be deformed).
Odysseus, in the upper right hand quarter of the image map below, was the second iguana to claim ownership of his human. He was probably the nicest iguana to ever live (no, I'm not biased at all!). He was purchased from a pet store as a hatchling, and he had graduated to full free-roaming status with his selected harem of girls (Penelope and Pandora).
All three of these iguanas, Cabal, Pandora and Odysseus, will live forever in memory.
