WARNING: Frozen iguanas shower forecast in Florida

Terrifying both for me and for those dang critters. I like that the infographic points out "they're not dead though"
I remember them encouraging people to kill the things due to them being invasive. I wonder if it'll start cold enough, long enough, to actually do went good.
Edit: Oh wait, this doesn't automatically kill them?

Depends, how many trees with Iguanas on them are right next to your coffee table?
No, they need to die.
They are an invasive species doing harm to the local ecology. Pythons too.
That's why the warning. Last time we had such a severe cold snap there issues with it.
It was 37 this morning. 37!! Probably won't even break 70 today.
Everyone wishing well to the iguanas is completely misinformed. These shit heads have come into our environment and are fucking it up. They all need to die.
Should hopefully be cold enough to kill off a good number of boa constrictors in the Everglades.
They are fucking horrible. The first two massive units I caught I couldn't bring myself to kill. The next two I caught didn't make it out alive.
Wacking day is here.
We have them all over my parents' property in the trees and behind the fence. They're a menace and I worry about the dogs getting to them when they fall.
how long till that congressman holding a snowball gets replaced with holding a frozen iguana for global warming disbelief?
OP

If only idiots wouldn't use them as pets... Are they dead or just pushed into some sort of hibernation? Either way, a positive development for the area.
I wonder if all those Youtube Catch n Cook channels will be going hunting for all these reptiles
They're quite edible. And obviously you can just pop them right in the freezer. Don't thaw and refreeze though.
And they are extremely boney so make sure to properly dress and clean. This is only worth doing if your "chicken of the trees" is at least four feet from tip to tail.
Do NOT try to make ceviche - like poultry acid is not sufficient to kill pathogens and parasites in this meat.
Most of the meat is in the legs but the eggs of adult females are full of nutrients and can be added to soups and stews to enrich them.
They are not endangered - o the contrary they are invasive and destructive in many locales.
lol my gf showed this to me last night.
It has been insanely windy the last 2 days - in Melbourne Area, Space Coast.
