Video by @Joel Sartore | This endangered Guatemalan spiny tail iguana named Rocko was photographed at the @sacramentozoo where he was surrendered by his private owner many years ago. Reptiles like this iguana play a critical role in the conservation of biodiversity, but are often overlooked. They fill an important spot in the food chain as both predator and prey, and have also been known to pollinate many different plants within their habitats. When any species is eliminated from an ecosystem, dramatic and sometimes devastating changes occur in the environment as well as the populations of other species.
The non-profit Sacramento Zoo is home to more than 500 rare and endangered species. Over half a million guests visit the zoo in California’s capitol every year to learn about these animals. They're committed to animal conservation and playing a part in local and global efforts to preserve species in wild places.
Check out @Joel Sartore to see a close up portrait of Rocko!
