Centuries-Old Reptiles Vindicated: Clarion Island Iguanas Predate Human Arrival by Millennia

In a remarkable discovery, biologists have determined that iguanas living on Clarion Island, a remote Mexican island in the Pacific Ocean, are actually native to the region and not an invasive species as previously believed. The research, published last month, shows that the spiny-tailed iguanas have been present on the island for around 425,600 years, long before any human presence.
