EXPLOITATION OF Ctenosaura pectinata (IGUANIDAE) IN THE CENTRAL PART OF ITS DISTRIBUTION IN MEXICO

Abstract

n the absence of sustainable management, several rural communities exploit the natural resources of their surroundings, which can cause a direct impact on wild population. Here we report the use of the Black Spiny-tailed Iguana (Ctenosaura pectinata) as a food source by a community in central Mexico.
