Review section
editI am nominating this featured article for review because the article has an extensive further reading section, which can be incorporated into the article. There are no post-2011 sources, and a Google Scholar search produced some recent sources that might be included, and there might be others if an extensive search of other databases is conducted.

I'm concerned that chunks of this article may be dated.
- "The population on the US Naval Base at Guantánamo Bay has been estimated at 2,000 to 3,000 individuals," - three sources, most recent is 2005
- "The population on Cayman Brac is less than 50 of these animals and Little Cayman supports 1,500. A feral population of C. n. caymanensis has been established on Grand Cayman" - source is from 2004
- " As of 2000, there has been talk of removing or relocating this population of iguanas by the US Department of Interior. This feral population is the source for 90% of the captive Cuban iguanas held in private collections" - bizarrely, the source for something being "as of 2000" appears to actually be from 1998.
- "Researchers on Isla Magueyes observed a single episode of cannibalism in 2006 when an adult female iguana chased, caught, and ate a hatchling" - source is from 2006, more about cannabilism in this species may be known by now.
The description content looks like it has good bones, but this is going to require a top-to-bottom workthrough to make sure that everything is up to date. Hog Farm Talk 16:14, 5 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Move to FARC - chunks of this article need an overall due to dated content; no engagement. Hog Farm Talk 03:59, 15 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
