The rhinoceros iguana (Cyclura cornuta) is one of the coolest lizards in the world. In many ways they are better pets than their cousin the green iguana. But is the rhino iguana the best pet reptile for you?

My wife and her sister grew up with a pair of adult green iguanas. There father said that they were very protective of his daughters especially if they started crying. Apparently he couldn't even get close without getting tail whipped if they were crying. So I figured I'd share that tidbit since we were on the iguana topic.

About 25 years ago, I worked at a pet store that had a full grown male. He shredded two of my fingers when I was taking the water bowl out of his cage. He bit down so hard that his teeth went through my fingernails. It took about 15 years for the scars to finally fade. There were even scars under my nails! But there was blood everywhere, even splattered on the glass of the tank he was in. I left a blood trail from his cage to the bathroom (about 50 feet), I also got extremely ill within 24 hours (salmonella). I handle large lizards regularly, but these guys scare the hell out of me.

Contrary to what you say in the video, you CAN stumble across these guys at an expo, not realizing what you're committing to- thankfully for me, it was one of the best decisions of my life.

@@ClintsReptiles I agree they are big, expensive, and rare but com ppl lately disagree that they are at all dangerous. With socialization they are absolutely amazing. Again this is a species that is extremely intelligent and as a result is extremely easy to work with. While I agree they cant really be handled due to their size they can be very sociable. They can be walked on a leash just like a tegu and taken out side which has a huge amount of benefits for them. I've seen hundreds if not thousands of these guys and have never seen one that was dangerous in any way. We can agree to disagree here on them and this is the only one I've disagreed with you on. You do an amazing job with all of the animals you talk about but I'd suggest you look into these guys more and see how awesome they actually are.

I saw a rhinoceros iguana today in the flesh for the first time and WOW it was incredible. It lived full time in a reptile shop but had a HUGE enclosure that I could gladly have lived in myself with a tree and such 😂

I liked the video a lot but I do have to disagree on one point. You don't really need a giant water bowl for them to soak in. What a lot of cyclura owners do is give them a bath in the bath tub and that work great since you can control the temperature, it can be part of the taming process, and you can also drain it and fill it back up very easily! Or if you don't have a bathtub, you can just fill up a plastic tub and soak them in there. When are you going to do a video on the lewisi hybrids? From what I have seen from owning one, working for a breeder, and being part of a facebook group for them, the rhinos seem to be a bit more aggressive and likely to bite than the lewisi hyrbids and I personally think they don't make as good pets as either the lewisi hybrids or the cuban iguanas. I would love to hear your thoughts.

I bought mine on an Impulse 2 years ago . The first two years have been quite excessive in the violence I've experienced from this thing but it has slowly gotten better. This morning I woke up to quite a surprise as I thought that I had a 2-year-old male rhino iguana since purchase but yet I woke up this morning to two eggs in the cage and when I brought it to the place I bought it to to confirm if the eggs are fertile or not she laid another egg on my shoulder iguana to a female rhino iguana but luckily I named it a unisex name so I don't have to worry about changing the name but now I'm definitely interested in breeding after this experience

I would personally consider fostering or pet sitting for an iguana first due to the long life span, just to get a feel for what having one is like before completely committing.

I've had greens and now have a blue, I would give them much more credit. How do cats and dogs rank? If you compare by numbers they should not rank high. Iguana do not bite unless you as a human mess up. I think they are a solid 4, id rank cat or dog much lower but they are both common pets. Compare by numbers the iguana unless it's an odd mean one won't bite even if they are showing they would it's almost always a bluff. Dogs and cat can be horrible and bite ,claw just a reaction and I love them I'll never have a better dog than my first chessie but I had to watch her around anyone she didn't know and some she did. Even my mom wanted me to get an iguana over anything else, I had my first when I was 6. My lewisi is great but I did get bit when I put a harness on him. He doesn't like to be confined, I can't fault that I don't want that either.

These videos MASSIVLY overstate how "dangerous" these lizards are. If you interact with the lizard properly it wont bite you, if you pick them up properly they wont scratch you... all there is to it. The only way I could get my Tegu or Iguana to bite me would be to pry their mouths open and stick my finger in. As for holding them, you pick them up against your chest, or cradle them. If they feel secure, they don't flail their arms or legs or tail, and thus no scratches or bites. I can pick them up shirtless no problem.
