Does he look scary to you or does he look like he is smiling? The land iguanas are very big. They have rounded tails—the marine iguanas have flatter tails. Their skin must be very tough because they climb up the cactus trees. Cactus is something they like to eat. They usually sit very still while we take their pictures.

Are they dangerous? DO they have sharp teeth?

The eat plants, mainly the flowers, fruit and pads of the prickly pear cactus, so they are not dangerous. The have teeth inside there jaws that allow them to chew the plants.

How can these iguana's eat a cactus without their mouth being scratched by the prickles?

They have a strong saliva that softens the prickles.
