ROSWELL, N.M. (KRQE) - A Roswell woman is asking for the public's help in finding a missing member of her family.
But this is no ordinary missing person's case. The missing member is an iguana that's around 5 feet long.
'Izzy' the iguana has only lived with the Atkinson family since last Thursday, but he's already made a run for it.
Owner Melissa Atkinson said he hadn't quite adapted to all of his new siblings yet.
"Okay, I have six poodles, a guard dog, two cats, a ferret, oh, and a snake," Atkinson explained.
Her 7-foot red-tail Columbian Boa knows his own way back inside his Roswell home, but that wasn't the case for the 5-foot iguana.

Cute reporter says the lizard is her size. Would much rather meet her on the street than the lizard.
p.s. Wonder if the 7-foot boa ate the 5-foot lizard?

Ohhhhhhh...you don’t want to be missing a member in Roswell, do ya?

It’s unexplainable. Some people are just bat sh!t crazy.
“HEY, EARTHLINGS! YOUR LIZARDS ARE BELONG US!”
Paging Sgt. Stadanko
Saw the title and had to make sure I was zipped up.
The title says large lizard, not itty bitty iguana.
Thought Nancy Pelosi lived in California...never mind.
I know a guy who grew up on a Caribbean island, he says Iguanas are good to eat.
Iguanas are vegetarian, wouldn't hurt a flea on purpose. But the Wife freaks out when the cat brings a chuckawalla (like a smaller iguana) into the house.
A Tree iguana or a Marine iguana?
5’ is very large,,, sure its not a Monitor lizard of some sort?
good meaty animal when needed. . .
Izzy’s hide might be at the taxidermist getting prepped for a new pair of cowboy boots right now .....
