Overview
- TikTok creator Gray Davis filmed himself collecting a cold‑stunned green iguana that fell from a tree and turning it into tacos.
- He said the iguana contained about 20 eggs, which he soft‑boiled and blended into a sauce, arguing the removal would prevent future hatchlings.
- The videos omit the dispatch and cleaning, show the meat simmered with aromatics then crisped for tacos, and note he preserved the skin to reduce waste.
- Online reaction split between disgust—especially over using the eggs—and praise for framing the meal as sustainable invasive‑species control.
- Green iguanas are invasive in South Florida, officials permit humane killing on select public lands year‑round, and they warn cold‑stunned reptiles often revive as temperatures rise.
