Speed of 21.7 mph sounds like a conversion from metric raw data
[edit]If you convert 10 m/s or 35 km/h, you get 21.7 mph. Have we been demetricated? Lightmouse (talk) 07:46, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
- Just quoting the source directly. Although I am in favor of demetrification!--Mike Searson (talk) 08:44, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
- Corrected conversion assuming 21.7 mph was correct. I saw another reference that quoted 21.5 mph as the top speed. DGERobertson (talk) 20:52, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
Claim that ″Although it is heavily hunted it does not appear to be endangered in any of its native territory.″ is unfounded
[edit]Disclaimer: Please excuse my lack of expertise in editing. Most of my previous edits have been for grammar or clarity, so I will not make the change to the actual page.
This claim is undocumented and unfounded. Please refer to [1] for information about sustainability of hunting this species.Lisapaloma (talk) 04:05, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
- It looks like the claim is more or less correct because the IUCN assessment from 2015 makes a similar claim. The document you are referring to is from 1995 and refers to Ctenosaura in general, not this particular species. I think the needed fix is to add citation to IUCN and maybe adjust the phrasing.
