The Anegada ground iguana is one of the oldest species of rock iguanas in the world, and is the most genetically divergent of the West Indies’ rock iguanas. Unfortunately, these species are becoming widely extinct, with less than 300 left in the world. Anegada is one of the two remaining locations where these iguanas roam naturally, although you’d be lucky to catch a glimpse of one of these notoriously shy species in the wild.
