NEWS FLASH – May 3, 2008
Six Endangered Blue Iguanas Murdered
http://www.blueiguana.ky/news.htm

I personally am devastated by this news. It was only October last year that I spent two weeks volunteering at the Blue Iguana Recovery Program and developed a close bond with Pedro and several other Blues. Pedro is confirmed dead since entrails were found outside his enclosure but his body is still missing.
B.I.R.P. is in constant need of donations, and now more than ever! Please donate anything you can spare to this important conservation program. Donate here

How sorrowful, Shannon. I had to stop reading the description of the brutal slaughter. Mankind know no boundaries. I wish the criminals are apprehended.

May Pedro and his companions rest in peace in tender remembrance of the nice time spent with you. My sincere condolences.
