The green iguana, also known as the American iguana or the common green iguana, is a large, arboreal, mostly herbivorous species of lizard of the genus Iguana. Usually, this animal is simply called the iguana.
Scientific name: Iguana iguana
Order: Squamata
Phylum: Chordata
Kingdom: Animalia
Family: Iguanidae
Lifespan
The lifespan of an iguana is on average 12-15 years. When well-cared for, a healthy iguana can easily supercede that and live more than 20 years.
Temperature
Iguanas require a high ambient temperature in their terraria (basking spot 95°F to 100°F, cage 80°F to 85°F). Iguanas also need high humidity in their cage, which should be kept at around 70% (this prevent poor shedding and kidney disease).
