Description
Madagascar spiny-tailed iguana (Oplurus cuvieri) on a tree. Madagascar spiny-tailed iguanas are a member of the Opluridae family. Opluridae (Madagascan iguanas) are moderate-sized carnivorous lizards that are endemic to Madagascar. They are iguanids, not true iguanas, but lay eggs and have teeth that resemble those of true iguanas. Mainly rock-dwelling, terrestrial lizards, they may venture into trees. Photographed in Tsingy de Bemaraha, Madagascar.
