You will be briefed by an Ambassadors of the Environment by Jean-Michel Cousteau naturalist on the plight of the 25-pound “blue dragons” and collect fresh food necessary for preparing them for release into the wild.
A breath away from extinction, the Grand Cayman Blue Iguana relies on a breeding program to maintain its claim as the island’s largest native land animal. You will partake in a critical project to ensure their survival. You will be briefed by an Ambassadors of the Environment by Jean-Michel Cousteau naturalist on the plight of these 25-pound “blue dragons” and collect fresh food necessary for preparing them for release into the wild. Later at the Queen Elizabeth II Botanic Park, you will feed iguanas from babies to breeding pairs and serve as a spotter in the park to map the location of roaming blues using binoculars and GPS tracking.
