A survey of Ricord’s iguanas (Cyclura ricordii) and Rhinoceros iguanas (Cyclura cornuta cornuta) in Isla Cabritos National Park, Dominican Republic 2003 : a preliminary report

Abstract

In late 2002, the IUCN Iguana Specialist Group held a workshop in Santo Domingo to develop a species recovery plan for Ricord’s Iguana (Cyclura ricordii) in the Dominican Republic. In fulfillment of one of the objectives of this plan, the Indianapolis Zoo (ISZ) and Parque Zoológico Nacional (ZooDom) conducted a census of Ricord's Iguanas and Rhinoceros Iguanas on Isla Cabritos. This preliminary report is a summary of that work.
