EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the unique bond between a pet iguana and its owner. The common iguana, scientifically known as Iguana iguana, is seen perched comfortably on the arm of its human companion. Originating from tropical South America, these fascinating creatures inhabit forests along riverbanks. Adult iguanas primarily sustain themselves by consuming plants, while juveniles exhibit a preference for small animals. With the potential to reach lengths of up to two meters, these reptiles are truly impressive in size. A distinguishing feature shared by both male and female iguanas is a prominent fold of skin below their throat called a dewlap, which can be observed at the lower center of this image. The photograph beautifully captures the harmony between man and nature as they coexist in domesticity. It serves as a testament to our fascination with wildlife and our ability to form connections with even the most exotic creatures. This stunning portrayal offers an insight into zoology and highlights the wonders found within reptilian species. Displayed by Science Photo Library, renowned for their exceptional collection of scientific imagery, this print allows us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the intricate details that make each animal species so remarkable. Let it serve as a reminder of our responsibility towards preserving biodiversity and cherishing all forms of life on Earth.
