; {$ [/ L1 C% P: b/ l8 gPhysical Appearance: Full-grown green iguanas are usually between four and six feet, although they have been known to grow- h6 Z' o( z2 n
up to seven feet long. This includes the tail, however, which can make up about half the body length and, in addition to its green color, has black stripes. Green iguanas, not surprisingly, are green in color, but can be found in many different shade ranging from bright green, to a dull, grayish-green. Their skin is rough, with a set of pointy scales along the iguana's back. Green iguanas have long fingers and claws to help them climb and grasp.

}% y8 ?2 T/ e/ b. U1 N它的尾巴是青色，还有黑色条纹。绿蜥蜴当然是绿色咯。但也有分浅青到深青啦！它的皮是粗的。还有鳞在它的身体。它们有长的手指，和爪。以便它们可以爬行。 - p7 E* O6 { O% @0 a! a

; W1 E9 w! ?# T0 r* M: ~$ F" NAdaptations: Besides the long fingers and claws mentioned above, green iguanas have many excellent interesting adaptations. Green iguanas have good senses of hearing and smell, and superb vision. Their long tail is also quite sharp, and is snapped in the air as a defense mechanism. The tail can also break off if caught by a predator, but grows back without permanant damage. Green iguana skin is very water resistant, and tough to avoid cuts and scratches. The coloring of the skin helps camoulflage the green iguana, which means that they blend in easily to their surroundings to remain undetected by predators. If they are etected however, and need to escape quickly, these iguanas can dive from trees into water, and swim well. Green iguanas are quite sturdy-- they can fall 40-50 feet to the ground without getting hurt! Male green iguanas have a special flap of skin called the dewlap. Male iguanas can raise their dewlap to appear bigger than they really are, either to intimidate predators, or to impressive females. Both male and female green iguanas can store fat under their jaws and in their necks for times when there is not much food available.
" L3 ?5 J$ R# d0 ~( P( g除了有长的手指和爪，它们更有非常好的听觉，嗅觉，和视觉。它的尾巴有尖尖小小的刺，是他们的武器。但是它们很壁虎一样，尾巴容易断。可是会生回。它们的表皮是防水的，而且不容易受伤。绿色的它们让它们不容易被敌人发现。他们逃命也很快噢！还有，他们也是游泳健将呢！而且呀，就算从40-50尺跳下去，也不会伤噢！它们很茁壮。雄性绿蜥蜴有下垂的皮肉，让它们看起来更大。这是为了要吓敌人和吸引雌绿蜥蜴。它们可以储存食物在颈部。# Y8 o6 F/ x- O* ~& z# q0 d* D c5 {* `

Habitat: Iguanas live in tropical rainforest areas, generally in lower altitudes in areas near water sources, such as rivers or streams. They spend most of their time high in the forest canopy, about 40-50 feet above the ground. 4 M6 f/ L( D$ W0 t x# C' C- m
它们生长在热带雨林，靠近有水的地方。但是它们喜欢在高高的树上。% d3 K( j- ]2 J2 S9 T( ^
' z5 d3 \3 x+ U1 wBehaviour: Iguanas are diurnal, meaning that they are awake during the day. They are also cold-blooded, which means they do not produce their own body heat. In other words, if it is cold, the iguana is cold too. So to stay warm, green iguanas bask in the sun, lying on warm rocks as they soak up the sun's heat. * h( T4 P5 X. j/ s- b
diurnal：早上醒，晚上沉睡。因为它们本身没有温度，当冷时，只好睡觉，这样才不会费力。

1 p* n0 {. b5 n2 b5 ~8 ?. ^" M9 Y& lReproductive Cycle and Family Habits: Green iguanas tend to live alone, but may be seen in groups occasionally in good sunny basking spots. Iguanas lay many eggs at a time (about 50), in holes inthe ground called burrows. They also dig pretend burrows to confuse any animals that may be looking for eggs to eat. After female iguanas lay the eggs, they leave them and do not return. When iguana babies hatch, they grow up without care from their parents. Green iguanas lay many eggs, but only 3-10 babies actually survive to be adults. It takes green iguana eggs about 8-10 weeks to hatch, then takes baby iguanas about 2 years to become mature adults. 8 `" S0 b) t" r) ]8 u: B9 V7 Z
绿蜥蜴是独行动物，但一时可以看见一群绿蜥蜴在享受日光浴。它们是卵生动物。一次可排大概50粒卵。但其实只有3-4可存活。绿蜥蜴妈妈不会照顾绿蜥蜴BABIES。和海龟一样，生了就走。孵蛋大概需要8-10个星期。它们要两年时间来变成熟。

Diet: Green iguanas are omnivorous, so they eat both plants and meat. They tend to eat mostly plants, though, especially leaves and fruits. Sometimes green iguanas (especially young ones) will eat eggs, insects, and small vertebrates. ) a0 d2 |+ W/ G/ m+ J& d

要买钙粉，放在他的食物里，因为蔬菜没有CALSIUM。
