Hey just curious if anyone has first hand knowledge of why locals have such contempt for iguanas?
I've seen native islanders as well as dutch seasonal residents that go to, at times cruel lengths to either remove or kill them.
In florida they are invasive and everywhere so I get it.
Here there are relatively few by comparison.
This is an island where donkeys and on this trip goats roam the island free and unmolested (and some even stop and leave roadside meals for the donkeys)
However the Iguanas dont enjoy that same level of kindness.
On another note, been here days and not seen a single donkey, but goats on every outing. That's a new site for us. Previous trips were in sept and oct, maybe they are released seasonally. Or maybe someone lost a fence.
