Description

Appearance: Paraguayan Red Tegus are distinguished by their bright red colour, which distinguishes them from other tegu species. They’re built tough, with a broad neck and a long, muscular tail. As adults, they can grow to be 3 to 4 feet (0.9 to 1.2 meters) long and weigh up to 15 pounds (7 kilograms).

The Paraguayan Red Tegu is reddish-brown to brick-red in color, with black bands or reticulated patterns spreading throughout its body, tail, and limbs. Individuals’ patterns may differ, with some having more pronounced banding and others having a more mottled appearance.

Temperament and behavior: Paraguayan Red Tegus are noted for their inquisitive and clever temperament. They are diurnal (active during the day) and are frequently seen sunbathing or hunting for food. While they may be defensive or timid at first, they can grow reasonably docile and build strong ties with their owners with adequate treatment and socialization.

Diet: Paraguayan Red Tegus are omnivore, which means they eat both animal and plant stuff. Insects, small mammals, eggs, fruits, and vegetables are among the foods they consume. It is critical to provide a balanced and varied food for their wellbeing.

Paraguayan Red Tegus demand a wide and roomy environment that replicates their natural habitat. It should have a warm basking area, hiding locations, burrowing ground, and a water dish for soaking. To suit their needs, temperature gradients, UVB illumination, and humidity levels should be appropriately controlled.

Pets: Because of their remarkable appearance and interactive character, Paraguayan Red Tegus are popular pets. To thrive in captivity, they require attentive care, such as a big cage, a diverse diet, and regular handling and interaction. Before choosing them as pets, potential owners should research their individual demands and requirements.
