Pelvic region + undersides of legs greenish-yellow. Feb. 21, 1942 While hunting in the jungle W & N of Camp saw a large iguana on a branch near the top of a tall tree. Must have been 50' above the ground. An American egret flew over the tree, and the iguana, taking alarm, dove from the tree, turning a full somersault, and fell all the way to the ground without touching another branch. It landed flat on its belly with a resounding thud and lay there as if dead. When I went over to collect it, the iguana raised itself, ran swiftly to another tree, and climbed rapidly up the trunk and out onto a branch, unharmed.
