TRIP DETAILS + INFORMATION
You won’t want to miss this bucket list hunt! We are heading to West Palm Beach to chase invasive dinosaurs in south Florida, the Green Iguana. Green iguanas are not native to Florida and are considered an invasive species due to their impacts to native wildlife. Like all nonnative reptile species, green iguanas are not protected in Florida. This species can be harvested without a permit or hunting license in most of south Florida. Green iguanas cause severe damage to residential and commercial landscape vegetation and are often considered a nuisance by property owners. Florida needs your help in removing this invasive species and protecting the natural habitat!
We will be hunting with air rifles and blow dart guns from a boat on the residential canals of West Palm Beach. We will get 2 days of chasing after these green prehistoric reptiles! The cost of this trip will cover two days of hunting, three nights stay in our West Palm Airbnb ““The Hidden Gem”, all equipment needed to hunt. It is likely you will have to share a room or bed with others on this trip, please be prepared for that! “The Hidden Gem” is approximately 2 miles from the PBI airport, downtown, the beach and lots of restaurants. The unit includes a picnic table, grill, lounge chairs, hammock, a parachute covered deck with an outside dining table. There will be ample downtime to explore West Palm Beach. https://www.visitflorida.com/places-to-go/southeast/west-palm-beach/
