Hey I remembered! How amazing is that? If you knew just how bad my memory is, you'd say that's pretty stinkin' amazing. lol!
So I found this little gem...
In early January, when a national deep freeze extended even to the Florida Keys, iguanas fell into their natural hibernation-like torpor, and some compassionate Floridians, unaccustomed to seeing iguanas that appeared nearly dead, took them indoors to warm them up, which is a mistake. The owner of the veterinary clinic in Marathon said one "sweet lady" called him about the five-footer she had dragged inside. "When it woke up," said the vet, "she couldn't understand why it seemed to be coming after her." "When they warm up, they go back to being a wild animal."

Honestly, it would *never* occur to me to drag a 5 foot reptile into my house! We'll trust she survived and has learned a valuable lesson.
