Iguana accidentally sent to Ford’s Michigan plant finds a new home at the Detroit Zoo

(CBS-DETROIT) – An iguana is now a resident of the Detroit Zoo after it was accidentally shipped to Michigan, zoo officials announced.

The spiny-tailed iguana, native to Mexico’s Sonoran Desert, was accidentally trapped in Mexico and sent to a Ford Motor Company plant in Michigan.

He was rescued and now resides at the Holden Reptile Conservation Center at the Detroit Zoo in Royal Oak. While you stop by to say hello to the zoo’s newest resident, you can also visit some of the iguana’s new neighbors, including the Massasauga rattlesnake and the reticulated python, which is more than 15 feet long and about weighs 40 kilos.

The Holden Reptile Conservation Center includes 131 reptiles representing 61 species, according to the zoo’s website.
