Question
What do Fijian crested iguanas eat?
Bonnie O’Connor, Adelaide, SA.
Answer
Well, Bonnie, Fijian crested iguanas are mainly herbivores, which means they love eating leaves, shoots and fruits from trees and shrubs. Sometimes, they’ll snack on small insects. Our iguanas’ favourite foods are hibiscus flowers, grapes, rockmelon and pawpaw. They’re very healthy eaters.
