📋 About This Mod
UPDATE 3 MAKES THE IGUANAS UNAGRESSIVE.
This mod adds Iguanas to the wilderness parts of the map.
- Three color variants: Grey, Green and Yellow
- The Iguanas can be caught with the activation (E) key. They will be added to
your inventory when caught. They are very fast so a low level player could
have some difficulty catching them.
- They can be released again from the inventory, and they will still be alive
and run away.
- If you have a Grey, Green and Yellow Iguana in your inventory together with
some Wine and Jalapeño Pepper, they can be made into an Iguana Hot Pot which
will give you some boost.
- They can be killed and looted for Eggs and Eyeballs which together with some
Pinyon Nuts can be made into a tasty Iguana Eyeball Salad which will give
some boost as well.
Many thanks to sesom for letting me use his Iguana models.
If you play FO3 and like Iguanas you should definitely check out his original mod:

The chasing and catching idea is from bbstrobls' TTW Creature Mod. I expanded
on that and made the Iguanas lootable again.
Happy hunting!
