Overview
The Iguana is a skittish but beautiful species of lizard with vivid colors, found in the warmer regions of Pywel. It is cataloged in the Knowledge System under the Lifeforms category as a reptile. Iguanas are part of the broader reptile population in Crimson Desert, which also includes the Helodrama Lizard. Hunting reptiles can yield crafting materials such as Sturdy Hide.
Appearance
Iguanas are medium-sized lizards recognized by their vivid, colorful scales. Their bright coloring makes them one of the more visually striking wildlife species in the game. They have long tails, splayed limbs, and a row of small spines running along their backs. Despite their eye-catching appearance, they are quick to bolt when a player gets too close.
Location and Habitat
Iguanas favor warm, sun-exposed environments such as rocky outcrops, dry grasslands, and arid hillsides. They bask on rocks and flat surfaces to regulate their body temperature and will dart away when they detect movement. Players are most likely to encounter iguanas in southern and central regions of Pywel where the climate is milder.
Drops and Materials
Reptiles such as iguanas can drop Sturdy Hide when skinned, used in crafting recipes.

Tips
Iguanas are very skittish. Close the distance quickly or use a ranged attack before they flee.
Look for them sunning themselves on rocks during the daytime. They are harder to find at night.
Reptile hides are categorized differently from mammal hides in the crafting system, so keep an eye on which materials you need.
