I'm surprized it took this long for the news to catch it.

It's common place in latin america.

PS
The meat is really good, if prepared well.

The way I always prepared them was to tell them "calm down, this isn't going to hurt." ;)

Love it, hilarious!

I ate them in Honduras. Perfectly good food. The green skin is a little odd, but...not a problem unless you make it one.

A co worker ate iguana I think it was the tail in a stew if I remember correctly. He said it was good. Looking at what they eat it makes sense.

Reptiles are easy to 'detain' .. tie, secure or store until convenient to kill for the pot. Yet are as astute to pain and suffering as a mammal or a bird. Fully innervated. More aware than the inscrutability of a fixed countenance reads. Mammals and birds more routinely receive a merciful kill from people.
