An ocean (from Ancient Greek á½ ÎºÎµÎ±Î½ÏÏ, transc. OkeanÃ³s, the sea of classical antiquity[1]) is a body of saline water that composes much of a planet's hydrosphere.[2] On Earth, an ocean is one of the major conventional divisions of the World Ocean.
Iguanas are native to the jungles of central and south America, and the Caribbean. The iguana is a large docile species of lizard, meaning that iguanas are often a popular choice when keeping exotic pets.
The pet trade has provided a steady source of introduction of Iguana iguana to Florida. Iguanas escaped from captivity were reported from south Florida as early as 1966, at Key Biscayne, Hialeah, Coral Gables, and near the Miami International Airport (King and Krakauer 1966).
