Iguana cay attractions -not only sun & beach
Iguana Cay is inhabited by the friendly Rock Iguana. It is not uncommon to see 10 or 20 of them on the beach basking in the island sun. These remarkable creatures seem to be just as curious about us as we are of them and as soon as the boat pulls up to the shore they come scurrying over to greet us. They are not camera shy in the least, and in fact will let you get close enough to feed them. Your captain will take you snorkeling on some of the most spectacular and beautiful coral heads and reef structures available in the entire hemisphere as well as show you where to find trophy Conch shells and sand dollars. The Turks and Caicos rock iguana inhabits small cays, but has been reduced to less than 5% of its original range largely due to the introduction of predators. 2,000 iguanas are the only land creatures that inhabit Iguana Cay. To promote tourism on Iguana Cay, a boardwalk has been built throughout the island. Tourists can take a tour of the island, along this boardwalk, but are not permitted to step off it. The Turks and Caicos rock iguana dwells in rocky areas and sandy habitats as sand is required for nesting. The Turks and Caicos iguana is diurnal and spends the night in the burrows it has dug or in natural retreats in or under the rocks. Although Iguana Cay is home to over 2,000 Turks and Caicos rock iguanas, they have been wiped out from the other cays in their former range. Iguana Cay is now a nature reserve and neither dogs nor cats are permitted on the island. This is to ensure the survival of this critically endangered species. In 2000 scientists from the San Diego Zoo's division of Conservation and Research for Endangered Species (CRES), under the direction of Conservation Research Fellow Dr. Glenn Gerber translocated 218 iguanas from Big Ambergris and Iguana Cay where their populations were threatened to four uninhabited cays within the Turks and Caicos reserve system. To date, these iguanas have experienced a 98 percent survival rate; they have adapted to new conditions and even successfully reproduced the immediate breeding season. Yearling iguanas resulting from the reproduction of the original translocated adults from 2002 are exceeding the size of their counterparts on the source Cays from which their ancestors were translocated by as much as 400. Legislation to protect the iguanas has been drafted by the Turks and Caicos government in 2003. Additionally, the National Trust for the Turks and Caicos Islands has stewardship for the Iguana Cay to ensure that it is not mismanaged and has initiated a program to remove feral cats from Pine Cay and Water Cay. |
