Hello up there!
Who are you?
I'm a green iguana.
Iguanas are a type of lizard.
Where do you live?
We live in warm places like Central America.
The rain forest is our home.
I like your spines.
Our spines protect us from enemies.
We have strong tails too.
We use them to fight enemies.
Your tail is very long.
Sometimes we break off our tails.
This helps us escape danger.
Later we grow new tails.
Do you like to climb?
Yes! We use our claws to climb.
We spend lots of time in trees.
What do you eat?
We eat leaves, fruit, and flowers.
We have sharp teeth for chewing.
Do you go in the water?
Sometimes we hide from enemies in the water.
We can stay underwater for a long time.
Uh-oh! I hear a hawk.
It's time for a swim.
Good-bye, Green Iguana!
