Abstract

The Jamaican Iguana Recovery Group (JIRG) is a consortium of local Jamaican organizations and international conservation groups that held a workshop in July 2006 to formulate this Species Recovery Plan (SRP) for the Jamaican iguana. The document presents the priority conservation actions and organizational responsibility for those activities discussed at the workshop. Due to the time lag between the workshop and the printing of the final SRP document, some actions have been completed and others have been initiated. Appropriately then, this final SRP document includes an update on the progress of specific recovery actions. Finally, based on recent (2006-2011) research results, several actions have been added to those identified in the original workshop; otherwise, proposed activities and timelines remain as originally formulated.
