My entry to the Friendlymoose Photo Contest (Animals) [En-Es] The big iguana
Hi friends, almost two months ago I was coming back with my mom from doing some shopping at a nearby store. When we got to our street, we found a large iguana in one of our neighbors' houses.
Hola amigos, hace casi dos meses venia con mam谩 de hacer unas compras en un local cercano. Llegando a nuestra calle, encontramos que en la casa de una de nuestras vecinas hab铆a una iguana grande.
It was almost motionless, perhaps out of fear of the house dog or the danger of hurting himself on the arrow points of the fence.
Estaba casi inm贸vil, tal vez por temor al perro de la casa o al peligro de lastimarse con las puntas de flecha de la reja.
I had seen them larger and with duller colors.
I had also seen them very young, apple green 馃崗.
Las hab铆a visto m谩s grandes y de colores mas opacos.
Tambi茅n las hab铆a visto muy j贸venes, de color verde manzana 馃崗.
This one was large, about a meter and a half long and with bright pastel colors, I suppose it was a young adult.
Esta era grande, como de metro y medio de largo y con colores pastel brillantes, supongo que se trataba de un adulto joven.
Someone said it might be a pet belonging to a lady who had several at her house. I thought that made sense because it looked domesticated, well-cared for, and clean.
Alguien dijo que pod铆a tratarse de la mascota de una se帽ora que tenia varias en su casa.
Pens茅 que eso ten铆a sentido porque se ve铆a domesticada, cuidada y limpia.
We met one of my sons, I took several photos with him and we continued on our way back home, while the neighbor kept her dog away so that it wouldn't hurt the iguana.
Nos encontramos con uno de mis hijos, con 茅l tom茅 varias fotos y proseguimos nuestro camino de regreso a casa mientras la vecina guardaba a su perro para que no hiciera da帽o al animal.
Iguanas are arboreal lizards that live primarily in the tropics.
They can grow to over 1.5 meters in length, are docile, and are herbivores. They are also agile climbers and can swim.
Las iguanas son lagartos arbor铆colas que viven principalmente en el tr贸pico.
Pueden alcanzar m谩s de metro y medio de largo, son mansas y vegetarianas. Son adem谩s 谩giles trepadoras y tambi茅n pueden nadar.
All photos were taken by me with my Samsung Galaxy A15 smartphone.
Todas las fotos fueron tomadas por m铆 con mi tel茅fono inteligente Samsung Galaxy A15.
