The Yuwana is a green iguana, the largest lizard around on Aruba and has an almost dinosaur-like appearance with its rough skin and massive body. From head to their tail-tip adult iguanas can reach a total length of up to 2 meter.  When in danger or experiencing stress or threats, iguanas change to a camouflage color, adjusting to their environment. You can tell the age of an iguana by the shade of green of their skin; a bright green iguana is young; a dull-colored, more greyish green iguana is old. Iguanas are vegetarians and feed themselves with all kinds of foliage and certain fruits.
