Land iguana

Land iguanas in the Galapagos Islands are different colours on different islands - these ones were on an island with a lot of red/yellow/orange foliage, and the iguanas fit right in.

They are very slow moving - they eat cactus, and the cactus have evolved so that the iguanas can't reach the "foliage" so now the iguanas sit under the trees and just wait for the "leaves" to fall. Not the most pro active of animals!
