FUN FACTS!
- The Rhinoceros iguana, scientifically known as Cyclura cornuta, is a unique species of iguana that is native to the Caribbean islands of Hispaniola and Haiti. It gets its name from the horn-like protrusions on its snout, which resemble the horns of a rhinoceros. This iguana species is known for its impressive size, with adults reaching lengths of up to 4.5 feet and weighing up to 10 kg. Despite their large size, Rhinoceros iguanas are herbivores, primarily feeding on fruits, leaves, and flowers.One of the distinguishing features of the Rhinoceros iguana is its prehistoric appearance, with thick, scaly skin and large, round eyes. They have a dark gray to olive-green coloration, with some individuals displaying darker markings or striping along their bodies. These iguanas are also known for their elaborate courtship rituals, which include head bobbing, puffing out their throats, and engaging in physical displays to attract a mate.
Due to habitat destruction and hunting by humans, Rhinoceros iguanas are classified as a vulnerable species by the IUCN Red List. Conservation efforts are being made to protect their natural habitats and increase their population numbers through breeding programs in captivity. These efforts are crucial for ensuring the survival of this unique and majestic species for future generations to admire and appreciate.
