VIDEO: How Florida Missed a Great Opportunity to Eradicate Iguanas

After the last big freeze in South Florida in the winter of 2010 in which we had temperatures of about 40 degrees and below for at least five days in a row, the iguana population of the area was almost entirely wiped out. Yet today we now have an iguana population in the millions overrunning the area. This didn't need to happen. In this video I discuss how we missed a golden opportunity right after the 2010 big freeze to permanently bring about the permanent almost complete eradication of the invasive species iguana population and how we, along with the help of the Florida Wildlife Commission, can do it the next time Mother Nature blesses us with another big freeze lasting a few days.

Not much detail to add. I had tail, and it tasted EXACTLY like chicken breast. Probably even easier to do chicken recipes with than chicken.

Yeah, I heard the tail is the best part. And since iguanas are so plentiful here, that might be all that I eat especially since I have better things to do with my time than spend it skinning and cleaning the rest of the iguana. Just chop off the tails, skin them quickly, and then cook.
