The tree famous for giant green iguanas

A Guamuchil tree in the Mexican town of Sayulita has become home to a population of giant green iguanas.

The lizards live on a diet of soft fruits and scraps from a local restaurant.

The town is one of 28 towns to be recently added to Mexico’s "Magic Town" (Pueblos Magicos) project which recognises communities judged to have unique qualities.
