    On this episode, Mark and the crew are in one of the most remote parts of Grand Cayman Island to meet a lizard that was brought back from the brink of extinction! The Blue Iguana is one of the most beautiful and rarest iguanas on the planet. Meet Peter, a true ambassador for his species!
    Get ready, you're about to see a blue iguana who beat extinction!
    We want to thank Fred Burton and the Blue Iguana Recovery Programme for their assistance on this adventure! Without their efforts, these lizards would most likely no longer exist in the wild. We are extremely proud to showcase their efforts in this episode. Head to their website to book your own tour with their recovery program & get up close with the blue iguanas: bit.ly/39OpSaV,

    Beautiful species. I love rock iguanas, especially Cuban rock iguanas. Wow, 15? That program definitely saved them and bumped their numbers, glad they're not extinct

      @D G no because this iguana is endangered because of humans and not natural causes. Its natural environment got cut down for agriculture.
      On the other hand pandas for example might be meant to go extinct. They are not adaptable at all because they only eat bamboo. So your point still partially stands.

    When I went there I saw a couple wild ones and they were amazing! I also when to that same recovery program and saw what I think was “Peter” (I didn’t know it was him then but I got some pictures).

    When he said he's actually dull, i thought he meant his mood or something. I thought it was a good thing, because he's chill right now. But then I realized he's talking about his coloration. Wow, he must be something when he's up to full opacity.

    I was in Grand Cayman in 2008 not long after someone had broken into the QE II Botanical Park and killed 6 Blue Iguanas. It is hard to understand why anyone would do that. I'm not sure, but I don't think they ever found the jerks that did it.

    • @briantaylor2249
      @briantaylor2249 4 роки тому +1

      No they havnt fallen out. They have gotten much bigger and more popular as you tubers. Having multiple UA-cam channels for multiple ad revenue and more subscribers/ views is common for big UA-cam channels now. He’s still part of the Brave Wildness Team. That’s why in the top right you see the logo and he uses the “be brave, stay wild” slogan. It’s sad that they aren’t always together anymore but dividing up helps them with projects, videos, and money. (As having a camera crew and taking all these trips isn’t free obviously.)
