Lizards
Iguana iguana
Green Iguana
Common to Florida in the United States, Green Iguanas are also commonly kept as pets.
Varanus niloticus
Nile Monitor
These African monitors are among the largest and most difficult monitors to work with. Reaching lengths of up to 7ft from nose to tail, their native environment is harsh and has instilled in them a fighting spirit that can be difficult to overcome with socialization. With enough patience they can be socialized and are a joy to work with.
Salvator merianae
Argentine Black & White Tegu
The largest of the new-world lizards, tegu are common pets and can become nearly as tame as a typical dog. It’s not uncommon to see tegu playing with toys, seeking the attention of their keepers and responding the same way our dogs do.
