Frozen Iguanas Are Falling From Trees Due To Cold Weather In Florida | TIME

I wonder if that lady found out that they're not dead?

[islandstyle]

They are cold stunned. Happens to sea turtles too. That woman with the dressed up dogs doesn't know her ass from her elbow.

[tiddiesattic]

"I don't know what to do about cleaning them up"
Wow🤦🏼‍♂️ what a genius

[tomcat]

Good name for a cocktail. "Bartender, I'll have a Frozen Iguana.."

[kevin.argueta]

Did anyone else notice how the puppy stood up to watch what was happening? Lol.

[bdk]

Sad?Help them!? These things are NOT indigenous to FL.They are a major infestation, Floridians welcome their death. You ppl being like "oh those poor things" have no clue.

[gdduuhsstyhbbb]

I understand some of you really like Iguanas. However, they are destroying the local populations of Florida and causing a rapid decline in over a hundred native species. This could be a good opportunity to help remove some of these pests for the good of the environment

[seanbrown]

Iguanas are an invasive species. I thought Floridians were trying to kill them like the pythons?...🤔 toss’em in the trash.

[Chubzdoomer]

Plot twist: They're actually just baked af

[ecminc]

Global warming hit Florida hard, lizards are dying! "HOW DARE YOU!"

[trillionzillionvinividivic]

Those iguanas are huge, glad I live in Central Florida (Daytona Beach )we only have the regular lizards around here .

[shaqwiththecombo]

Why is there so many people here that don't know that reptiles are cold-blooded? Like this is some elementary school type knowledge that everyone here should know. 🤦🏽‍♂️

[mistery-ed]

Do they really die or just get too cold to function and then come back to life after they warm up?

[Elongated_Muskrat]

This is a sign that Pharaoh should free the Israelites.

I could watch videos of those cute as all hell dogs for HOURS.

[timothylongmore]

Mine froze once. Stiff as a board. Warmed him up in my hands and he woke right up. Lived thru a snowstorm once too.

[LunalovaniaGaming]

Aw that's so sad. 😢 I know they don't die in this case, but if any of them fall from a tree onto a highway, they can get run over. Also their predators have the upper hand. Do they have predators in Florida? I lived in florida for a few years when i was younger. Fort Myers. We didn't have lizards as big as those but we had them all over the place. I found them all around my pool and backyard. They are so cute. What concerns me is the people who think they are dead when they are not.

[jonathanpopham]

please do not pick up any lizard by the tail

[BrandonMitchell]

omg i had this happen to my pet one when i was a kid...we thought it was dead and threw it away ....i remember finding out years later that it was not dead but in fact it had become
