A woman went to use the bathroom before bed in her West Kendall home Tuesday night and got an unwelcome surprise — an iguana had taken up residence inside the commode.



So what did she do? She closed the lid and called 911.



Lt. Scott Mullin, from Miami-Dade Fire Rescue's Venom One unit, said when he got the call he made the dispatcher make sure it was really an iguana and not a snake.



"This is the first time I've ever found an iguana in the toilet," Mullin said.
