Thanks for the info on the frozen iguanas. I’d read about it, but no-one mentioned what was done with them. Were they lovingly nursed back to health? Tossed in a freezer for safekeeping until the weather warmed up? Turns out “humanely euthanized” is their fate. Just as well.
They’re an invasive species, thus the euthanizing. One trapper had collected a couple that were 6’ long - yikes! They also have salmonella in their mouths so if you get bitten, it could be a bad thing ... you definitely don’t want them warming up if you’re handling them.
Burmese pythons & African Rock pythons are also invasive & FL has a program to try to deal with them. If you are interested & want to see some interesting video, check out the videos by Chris Morgan of The Wild (if you are ‘triggered’ by snakes, especially very large ones, don’t go there!):
