That's so funny.
I don't know much about iguanas, are they trainable, do they make good pets?

I don't know about trainable, but they are pretty smart, and very agile. And fast! And sharp!
They are not great pets for kids, they don't really "play". They do require a bit of maintenance, and their habitats can be expensive to create and maintain. They are tropical, after all. However, it costs about $3.00 per week to feed him. They are vegetarians. He eats mainly collard greens, parsnips and green beans. He will get occasional treats of fruit. There have been times when I have forgotten that he is out and about, and he has gotten onto the table (they are excellent jumpers and climbers) and helped himself to the occasional sandwich or bowl of mac and cheese. He does love the mac and cheese!

Call Kraft and see if they would like to give that Geico gecko some competition and have him be the new spokesperson, er spokesiguana, for Kraft Mac & Cheese.

That would be a good idea, but the mac & cheese is really not good for him. It is kind of like McDonald's - it tastes really good, but it will eventually kill you!

He's awesome! Just like a little dinosaur.
