In certain parts of Puerto Rico people get frequent visits from these iguanas. We call them "tree chickens" (gallinas de palo). My dad has a hard time with them. They don't go into his apartment but show up at his balcony quite often.

I felt bad seeing the coyote being dragged into the van. The poor animal. He was so scared.

Yes Natali, that upset me too. He didn't understand. He didn't realize he was doing something "wrong". He was just doing what was natural for him to do. He smelled or saw something interesting and he walked in.

The story is humorous, but it is rather sad too.

I did hear a happy ending though. He was released back into the wild -hopefully far away from the city. They also gave him a name. They named him Adrian, which just happens to be my cousin's name!

So, I guess the story has a happy ending. Hopefully he will stay away from the city from now on, but he will probably come back at some point.
