What is biggest iguana?

The largest species of iguana is the green iguana (Iguana iguana), which can grow up to 6.6 feet (2 meters) in length and weigh up to 11 pounds (5 kilograms). Green iguanas are native to Central and South America and are known for their vibrant green coloration and long tails.

Green iguanas are herbivores, primarily feeding on leaves, flowers, and fruit. They are excellent climbers and spend much of their time in trees, basking in the sun to regulate their body temperature. Green iguanas are also known for their strong jaws and sharp teeth, which they use for feeding and defending themselves against predators.

In captivity, green iguanas require a large enclosure with branches for climbing and a UVB light source for proper bone development. They can live up to 20 years or more with proper care. Green iguanas are popular as pets, but they require a significant amount of care and attention to thrive.
