The most abundant and well-known type of iguana is the green iguana (Iguana iguana). They have an average size of 6.6 feet and weigh up to 11 pounds. Their green color helps to camouflage them in the bushes, and they have a row of thorns on their bodies that act as defenses. Iguanas live in a variety of habitats, including deserts, rocky areas, swamps, tropical rainforests and lowlands, depending on the species. There are green iguanas throughout Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean Islands and southern Brazil. The iguana species that live on the Caribbean islands are collectively referred to as rock iguanas. Desert iguanas are found in the southwestern United States and Mexico, while two marine iguanas inhabit the Galapagos Islands.
