Congratulations to those of you that guessed right to our quiz! The answer was The Motagua Spiny-tailed Iguana (Ctenosaura palearis)!
This iguana is an #Endangered species found only in the Motagua Valley in #Guatemala. Environmental education is a key part of of any conservation programme. At the Heloderma Nature reserve in #Guatemala the Ctenosaura palearis project invites local school children into the reserve to see the #iguanas and learn about the Endangered iguana and the dry forest habitats. The team also go to the local schools to provide environmental education classes and provide workshops for local communities in around the reserve. #education is extremely important for #conservation projects bringing communities and nature together is vital for species survival!

A feature on #Fiji! The Central Fiji Banded Iguan

A feature on #Fiji!
The Central Fiji Banded Iguana (Brachylophus bulabula) is an arboreal species found on several islands in the Fiji archipelago. They are listed as #Endangered by the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species and are threatened primarily by habitat loss and invasive predators as well as agricultural practices such as land burning which destroy food sources and shelters for the iguanas.
IIF have supported several projects working with Fijian #Iguanas since 2009, currently a Fijian Iguana species action plan is being developed which will focus on #Conservation recommendations which will help protect the species across the region.
Find out more about projects which IIF have supported on Central Fijian Iguanas on our species page here! https://www.iguanafoundation.org/what-we-support/fiji-iguanas/central-fiji-banded-iguana/

Thank you @westbaygolf for this beautiful picture

Thank you @westbaygolf for this beautiful picture of the endemic Roatan Spiny-tailed iguana at the West Bay Golf Resort.
This species of iguanas is native to #Roatan is found nowhere else in the entire world! They are an endangered species with around 4000~ individuals remaining. They are threatened by illegal poaching and feral cats and dogs which eat them and their eggs.

The Roatan Spiny-tailed Iguana project supported by IIF is a conservation and field skills workshop on the island of Roatan focusing on collecting natural history data and building on previous research by assessing man-made pressures on the species and learning more about the reproductive health of the Iguanas.
Roatan hosts the #Iguana Conservation and Research Workshop each year (unfortunately suspended this year due to covid) with students from iguana range countries in #CentralAmerica and the #Caribbean. This workshop seeks to build research capacity and foster the future generation of field will conservation biologists!
