And yet another problem...

Well I dont think I posted this story on here but I'll give you a brief story on what happened. About a month ago, someone went into my backyard and cut the bolt on Clints cage and stole my iguana. Well I contacted the police and animal control and they went around the neighborhood talking to people and telling the consequences of theft. About 2 weeks later, my iguana "shows back up" in my backyard. He had lots of nose rub and the end of his tail was crush by something. Whoever stole him, didnt take care of him in that amount of time.

His nose rub healed, but the tail started to cause problems. I was keeping it clean, very clean. I went on vacation for 5 days and when I got home, he was getting gangrene on his tail. For those who dont know what gangrene is, its an infection that will start kills tissue in your body. It'll eventually kill you unless you amputate the infected area.

So he got about 8" of his tail amputated to stop the gangrene. Now hes back to normal. Eventually his tail will regrow.

My boy has been through a lot...

That's terrible! The crappy things people do to each other never cease to amaze me.

I'm glad he's back though.
