Low temperatures in Florida have led to an unusual phenomenon, with iguanas falling from trees due to the cold. These reptiles lose their grip and become inactive, but they are not dead; they usually recover once it warms up.


Jessica Kilgore from Iguana Solutions stated that she has collected iguanas worth hundreds of pounds, mentioning that green iguanas are an invasive species and cannot be relocated. She explained that the cold and strong winds from the beach worsen the situation. When temperatures drop below 10-15 degrees Celsius, a "cold-stunned iguana storm" occurs. Although iguanas risk death if they cannot warm up, human intervention is often more dangerous, as well-meaning passersby may pick up the reptiles, thinking they need help.
