The Common Land Iguana: A Majestic Creature of the Galapagos Behold the magnificent Galapagos land iguana (Conolophus subcristatus), with its mouth wide open in a display of power and dominance. This iconic reptile, recently reintroduced to Santiago island, is reclaiming its rightful place in the archipelago. Found near the summit of Volcan La Cumbre, this land iguana stands tall against the backdrop of breathtaking volcanic landscapes. Its close-up reveals intricate details of its eye and textured skin, showcasing nature's artistry at its finest. In harmony with their surroundings, these land iguanas can be seen coexisting peacefully with Fernandina Volcano as if they were part of the very landscape itself. Their presence on North Seymour Island adds an extra touch of enchantment to this already mesmerizing destination. Exploring their burrows on Caldera floor or basking under the warm sun at Cape Douglas on Fernandina Island, these creatures effortlessly blend into their habitat. Even amidst a volcanic landscape on Caldera floor, they find solace and nourishment from coastal Portulaca plants. Witnessing them from atop La's summit offers a unique perspective that showcases both their beauty and resilience. And who could forget about the rare hybrid between Conolophus subcristatus and Amblyrhynchus cristatus? These fascinating creatures are living proof that nature always finds a way to surprise us. As guardians of these islands for centuries, it is our duty to protect and preserve these common land iguanas, and are not just inhabitants; they are symbols of evolution and adaptation in one of Earth's most extraordinary ecosystems - The Galapagos Islands.
