Galapagos Land Iguana
Global Cuts
The Galapagos land iguanas resemble the mythical creatures of the pastdragons with long tails, clawed feet and spiny crests. In reality, these harmless lizards are alive today, but endangered in their own native land.
When Charles Darwin visited Galapagos in 1835, he wrote about the land iguanas:
""...they are ugly animals, of a yellowish orange beneath, and of a brownish-red colour above: from their low facial angle they have a singularly stupid appearance.""
The Land Iguana footage is shot with a 3CCD DVCAM camcorder and is supplied in flattened QuickTime format. It is shot and captured in DV-NTSC format dimensions, 720 x 486 pixels, at a frame rate of 30 fps.

Galapagos Marine Iguana
Global Cuts
The Galapagos marine iguana is one of the most unusual forms of marine mammal life found anywhere in the world. In short, the Galapagos marine iguana is the only known iguana in the world that will purposely go into the ocean. Once in the water, the Galapagos marine iguana uses its specially adapted tail to dive at least fifteen meters below sea-level, where it will stay and eat the seaweed for anything up to thirty minutes before resurfacing.
Perhaps no member of the Galapagos fauna has met with as much revulsion by historic visitors as the marine iguana.

Red Marine Iguana
Global Cuts
Just about every rocky shoreline in the Galapagos Islands is home to the marine iguana, the only sea-going lizard in the world. The marine iguana is an extraordinary animal which lives on land but grazes on a variety of seaweed, either on exposed rocks or by diving into the cold seawater. This habit, totally unique in iguanas, provides them with an abundant food source but can make them vulnerable to predation by sharks and other large fish. They are found nearly throughout the whole Galapagos archipelago, in coastal concentrations of up to 4,500 individuals per mile. The total population has been estimated at between 200,000 and 300,000.
The iguanas show their colour as they mature - the young are black, while adults range from red and black to black, green, red and grey depending on the island. Here you'll find Black Marine Iguana Footage.
