The National Weather Service has issued a falling iguana for Florida.

In their tweet they said.


"This isn't something we usually forecast,


Ya think ?


but don't be surprised if you see Iguanas falling from the trees


Trust me with or without your warning.

Anyone that sees a iguana fall from a tree is still going to be surprised .

It’s just not something that you see every day. 😳



tonight as lows drop into the 30s and 40s,” the weather service tweeted.


The article said they start becoming lethargic when temperatures fall into the 40s. They’re cold blooded so of course the whole scenario iis very likely.

I seriously doubt anyone will be injured by falling iguanas.

The injuries will more than likely come as a result of people freaking out and running in the trees.

I guess if you’re an old testament follower. That’s still better than frogs.


Kidding aside Florida has over 500 invasive plant and animal species. It’s a real problem that has no solution.

Full disclosure

I saw this mentioned on a different site. It had no narrative just a copy paste of a different article.

Which I believe makes this original content. 😇

Taste like chicken

When I was on a beach in Florida something similar to this video happened to me. It was all fun and cool until it started heading towards the beach I was on! We ran so fast into the hotel!!!

I've lived in south Florida all my life. I watched the iguana population grow in my area so much that years ago they had to open up hunting season on them. I soon found out that iguana tastes great!

I had a Nile monitor lizard jump off a roof and land on me in Fort Myers .

It didn’t hurt , but I did almost run into a *tree .

* True story except it wasn’t a tree it was the side of the house . Tree just fit my dialogue better . Lol

Let’s hope they all get wiped out, give the native animals a break

It might make it easier to get rid of them.
If they get cold and fall to the ground send crews out to pick them up.
Got to be easier than finding them in the tree.

If Sue Lyon was in Florida looking the way she did in that and the original “Lolita” .

Everything would be fine because it sure as hell would be hot down there .

I'd say send her up here... however...

...mountain lions are known to drag their kills up into trees, and we have mountain lions.

A sudden thaw, could drop deer out of our trees. They don't sell helmets for that...

If we have a slow thaw, the bears climb the trees after emerging from hibernation. They harvest the succulent tree carcasses... just the way nature intended...

Circle of life...

Deer have the decision making capacity of a squirrel .

I’ve hit three down home in the last 20 or so years .

In my opinion the whole species should be renamed for how they sound .

“Thud”

But look on the bright side it could be worse than deer falling out of trees .

Did you ever read the book “Antlers in the treetop “ by Who Goosed the Moose ?

We could rename humans “ splat “.

Mountain Lion could’ve subconsciously meant Cougar ?

“A Freudian slip is when you say one thing but mean your mother.”

I’ve got nothing for helmet .

Cougars here tend to predate near interstate highways... I avoid Coeur D'Alene like the plague


(...not to be confused with "Cougars" from Pullman, WA...)

When I was young a cougar got her claws into me for a while .

I would’ve rather faced a mountain lion .

If nobody had coined the word stalker it would’ve been mine .

I hope she doesn’t fall out of a tree ! 😱

< chuckles > My thrill for the week was chasing a wayward squirrel that came in through the chimney through the house. My home state's thrill for the week is bundling up like Nanook of the North went on an Antarctic expedition. They bundle up when it hits 60 at night down there, and freak when it gets any chillier o.O I grew up down there and found that very weird, it wasn't cold! Up here in MI, I don't even shut the house windows unless it's in the low 50s. My UV-fried friends still down in America's Wang get all bent out of shape, "Are you insane, you're going to freeze to death!" Holy crap, it's unreal, they really think that XD

Chicken of the trees. Grill'em up and throw'em on a taco with some plantains, refritos, and salsa.
