About

Fio is my grand-iguana. He arrived on Easter weekend, 2016 from the local reptile rescue. He was scrawny and pathetic, but he liked to eat.

His first home was an aquarium, followed by several repurposed cages which he rapidly outgrew.

His previous cage was a large greenhouse that took up most of the downstairs den.
In June, 2024, he moved upstairs to the living room.

He seems to grow more regal every day. Anyone who things the lion is the king of the jungle has never gazed upon a full-grown iguana.
