They've always been a thing.

With the cold front coming through this week I guarantee you'll hear about them falling out of trees frozen.

Every so often someone has to go to the hospital because they got dinged in the head by a falling iguana.

Well, they haven't "always" been a thing because they're invasive. People letting their pet iguanas loose established the first breeding populations in South Florida in the late 1960s.

Basically, the first Florida iguanas were making the first Florida iguana babies while the Beatles were writing Sgt. Pepper's.
