Editor’s Remarks

Our efforts to expand and diversify the content of Iguana create an ever-increasing demand to obtain

new and often rare photographs to enhance content and adorn covers. Locating sources for this

material is a daunting task that often takes months of searching just to obtain a single photograph. Several

generous photographers have consistently donated photographs in support of our efforts. Their contri-

butions have played a major part in shaping the new look of Iguana. The IRCF gratefully thanks:

Suzanne L. Collins, CNAH (www.cnah.org), a major contributor of many photographs over the past

few years; Thomas Wiewandt, Wild Horizons (www.WildHorizons.com), for spectacular photographs

that include this issue’s cover; L. Lee Grismer, La Sierra University, for breathtaking photographs; Joseph

Burgess, for photographs and other countless contributions; Joseph Wasilewski, Natural Selections

(www.natselections.com), for crocodilian and iguana photographs; and Glenn P. Gerber, CRES

(http://cres.sandiegozoo.org) for photographs of West Indian Rock Iguanas.
