Product Description

A number of iguana pet books have been written in recent years, but still only one addresses the complete needs of these big green lizards: "Green Iguana—The Ultimate Owner's Manual" by James W. Hatfield III. This comprehensive yet highly readable book is just what its name says: the ULTIMATE book on green iguanas.

In 650+ pages of clear, lively, compelling and accurate text, the author presents the most current, scientific and useful information available about iguanas.

This new Second Edition introduces important medical black-and-white photos from internationally known veterinarian Scott Stahl, plus new photos in the color section. And to make sure more iguana owners have access to the ULTIMATE iguana book, the retail price was reduced. No other pet care book on any animal offers this level of commitment to its readers.

"Green Iguana—The Ultimate Owner's Manual," the culmination of over 10 years of research, weighs in at more than 2 1/2 pounds and is the largest, most comprehensive, scientifically accurate, up-to-date, helpful, fun, easy-to-read iguana pet care book ever written. And with the book's clear, accessible layout, you can quickly find whatever information you need.

The book's nine chapters and ten appendixes cover everything from birth to death of an iguana.

"Green Iguana—The Ultimate Owner's Manual" also features:
° 24 pages of color photos
° 16 black-and-white photos, including exclusive iguana skeleton photos
° 9 iguana medical photos from a world-renowned veterinarian
° more than 30 detailed scientific illustrations, drawings, charts, diagrams, and tables

I loved this book, it has so much helpful information, and you could tell that the author really cared about Iguanas.

Excellent & Informative
A Fantastic Book and very comprehensive. He gives you all the information that you will ever need if you want an iguana. PURCHASE THIS BOOK BEFORE YOU OWN AN IGUNA. There are full plans for making the ultimate home and I wish I would have had it before I had one built. All the others books I purchased are obsolate!
