Hello everyone. My name is Jane and I live in Michigan where I operate Mid Michigan Reptile Rescue and Rehabilitation. As you can imagine, Iguanas are the most frequently dumped or abandoned reptile and we are currently caring for 27 GGI's. I've been keeping Iguanas for 9 years. I also keep Spinytail Iguanas, Desert Iguanas, Cyclura Iguanas, Tegus, Monitors and Bearded Dragons. I haven't taken the time to really look around yet but I will in the next couple of days. Glad to see another site dedicated to our amazing green friends.

Hi Jane-
Welcome to the Zone!
We're sure glad to have you here. Thanks for all the great pics. That's quite a collection you have.
How's your rescue going? Are you "full"? LOL
Ig_Daddy: Lyn just likes to throw this kind of info out there to get us all up in arms first. LOL I've heard about this "new Iguana movie" in about 3 different places now, and guess what? She doesn't give any details in any of those places! LOL So, maybe she'll give the info to The Iguana Zone and "break" the story here first! How about it Lyn?? Got any details on this new movie??? Hmmmm??? We're all waiting here.

Well Dom about the movie...I will tell you what I know...It is based on a book called Iguana Brothers and will be a cartoon for the kiddies...I have heard that the book talks about the "Yummie bugs " iguanas eat...and thats a stinky thing for our iguanas and rescues...I figure the boom on igs will rise and they definitely will be wrongfully cared for.....so now you know....ok? Satisfied? good...and by the way MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL OF YOU.....Lyn........

Hi Folks- I did some research and found the book listed at numerous kids book sites. The descriptions don't tell too much. Here's what I read: It's about two brother Iguanas (OK, now don't laugh too hard) named Tom and Dom ;D and their adventures. It talks about them deciding whether or not to eat bugs and they speak a little english and a little spanish to show their origins. Tesa, bless her heart, found it at half.com and ordered me a copy (I think it had something to do with the Iguanas name, LOL)! So now I can't wait for it to get here and give you a real review from and Ig lovers point of view. The book has been picked up to be turned into an animated series. That should be fun. It's in the very beginning stages of animation. Maybe, we can persuade the animators and/or authors to modify the story to show correct care and things like that. I'll let you all know as soon as I receive it! Thanks Tesa!

I can't wait to hear all about it.
Do you know who's producing the animation?
