Florida Researchers Are Bashing In the Skulls of Iguanas
"Researchers in Broward County, Florida have turned to a particularly gruesome method to curtail South Florida's iguana population: bashing in the skulls of the reptiles."
'Local vet Susan Kelleher said it was cruel, suggesting that sedating and then euthanizing the iguanas was a more humane method. '
'Ketterlin said this method destroys the brain quickly and is actually the most humane way to kill the iguanas. '
'"The iguana does not belong here,” he told the Sentinel. “They need to be annihilated. '
'A team from the University of Florida (UF) is hunting the animals as part of a three-month project commissioned by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FFWCC) in order to determine the best way to remove them. '
