Never give an iguana Viagra

Thu Jan 25, 12:03 PM ET

ANTWERP, Belgium (Reuters) - Mozart, an iguana with an erection that has lasted for over a week, will have his penis amputated in the next couple of days.

Veterinarians at Antwerp's Aquatopia had sought to treat the animal's problem, but decided removal was the only solution because of the risk of infection. The good news for Mozart and his mates is that male iguanas have two penises.

Mozart, sitting on the shoulders of his keeper as camera crews focused on his red, swollen erection, seemed unperturbed by the news.

"It doesn't bother him. He doesn't know what amputation means," said vet Luc Lambrecht, adding that Mozart's sexual activity should be undimmed by the operation.

"I don't think so. That's all in his head."

Scotty, you get the award for having the most strange news....

Thanks Vee....

Yes, yes, congrats on the award ......this is strange indeed....but made me laugh nonetheless

LOL! Who would give an iguana Viagra? Just strange.

Scotty, I'm sure your're asked about your last name a lot, so I won't ask you... even thought I'm dying to. **this is where I'd enter the emoticon with tongue sticking out if I could**

Poor Mozart!

I can't imagine that that's comfortable. I mean, after a few hours, it must get annoying.

And, yes I do get asked that a lot....and we are probably distantly related. It's cool with me, we're both Democrats and I think he's pretty cool.

LMFAO! Wow this is an amazing story! haha

That's pretty interesting that male iguanas have 2 penises!

Ok maybe I am just overthinking this but if an iguana has two penises then why was just one of his penises erect? :blink

Maybe the other is more like a spare, in case of emergency,

Dude, I totally thought the same thing after reading it...so no, you're not overthinking. I really am curious...

Hmm so Iguanas must lose their dicks pretty often then to have spare. LOL!
