I think the reason would be that we are discussing killing something we can eat and maybe even get paid for it! 
and not just killing and eating, but how to and what it tastes like. mmmmmmmmm. yum.

 Yes we do tend to stay focused on killing FOOD

I've been holding my fire on this one boys just because I 've been too amused. But as unemployment drags on, and my retired father who has a place deep in the glades, travels more often, I'm thinking of a business(only half in jest). Captain Quakers Everglades Safari! Snook and Tarpon in the morning, a run into Naples or just a siesta in the afternoon (lunch provided) then Python hunting in the sawgrass in the late afternoon till after dark, machete, canoe and trained python dog provided. Day two, fishing in the afternoon, Iguana hunting by golf cart in the morning (Golf included). We take in a 9am tee time, with clubs and air rifles, play through a lovely course, pausing to snipe, and then return in time for lunch and fishing. $700 a day. What say you?

For all you Florida boys.... how difficult would these be to hunt...... how close can you get to them before they bolt?

I say 700 a day is WAAAAAAY too expensive.

Three variables.
1) Whether they are surrounded by idiots who don't mess with them or right thinking folks who want them dead.
2) The weather. They are very sluggish in the cold, to the point they become almost comatose if it drops below 40. Unfortunately the same is true of us natives so it evens out.
3) The amount of oblivious humans around. Never let it be said that an iguana can't haul ass if motivated. This is why all clients on day two (Iguana palooza) of Captain Quakers Everglades Bloodbath will be equipped with a BB SMG (suppressed) to keep the little bastards from making an escape.
