Florida collects more than 5,000 frozen iguanas in two-day period

Florida's falling frozen iguana phenomenon has found its way back into national headlines, with viral videos of people making a blanket out of the cold-stunned reptiles and even using them as a pizza topping. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) issued an executive order over the weekend that allowed people to remove cold-stunned iguanas from the wild without a permit and bring them to five drop-off sites across South and Southwest Florida, including one in Lakeland. Now that the collection period is over, the FWC is revealing just how many frozen reptiles were turned in.
