Mr. Squirrel looks like you have some competition

Mr. Squirrel while you've been resting on your complacent laurels, a new army is organizing, and is about to strike out against us gentle cyclists.







Yes, iguanas, and they don't appear to be going down without a fight.

Sad to see, at the trail today saw a rabbit that was ran over clearly by a bike, dead split in 2. Lot of rabbits this season, the flocks of eagles, hawks and falcons are gone this year for some reason.

Hope the guy got the wheel off the fork 1st... imagine trying to get that animal off the bike trying to rotate the wheel..

I guess Florida is the only winner here since it's supposedly invasive.

They taste better than chicken

This is from my time living in Venezuela long ago where iguana is not being treated as a pet.

They must’ve been going pretty fast for that to have happened. Impressive on a hybrid.

Unless they were just not paying attention.

Think the old man will stay running from now on. And BTW cant figure it out how the animal got mangled in the fork like that. I mean...u run over the beast and pretty much that's it. The iguana's back is sticky or something?
