How much bite force does a iguana have?

Iguanas have a bite force that can range from about 100 to 200 pounds per square inch (psi), depending on the species and size of the individual. This strong bite force is primarily used for feeding, as they consume a diet of tough vegetation. Their powerful jaws and sharp teeth allow them to effectively chew through leaves and fruits. Overall, iguanas are well-adapted to their herbivorous lifestyle.
