 You have found my free coloring pages blog.

Today, the new coloring page is one I drew of a Desert Iguana.

Desert Iguana and other North American Desert Animals

The desert iguana is a species of lizard found in North America, primarily in the Southwest portion of the USA and the Northwest portion of Mexico. They are about 13-14 inches or 33-36 cm. Some large adults grow to 16 or so inches. That is around 40 cm long. They are omnivorous but mostly eat plants. They also sometimes eat insects or carrion. They really rely on the creosote bush for food and even burrow underneath the bush. 

This drawing includes a roadrunner, a tarantula, two ants, a crustacean called a pillbug, a scorpion, a diamondback rattlesnake, flying birds that are probably vultures or some other bird of prey, and a cottontail rabbit.
