A MAN has revealed he found a large animal in his toilet and he has no idea how to get it out.

A Florida man was shocked when he woke up and found a toxic reptile lounging in his toilet.

“There is nothing like getting up in the morning and finding an iguana in your toilet,” Gary Greenspan said while recording the animal.

He confirmed that the iguana was alive, causing him to call animal control for help.

Iguanas have venom glands, which can cause serious injury to a person if the two come in contact, according to Iguana Control.

“I don’t know if it was looking for a spa day or what, but it’s huge” he explained, trying his best to describe the animal.

While Iguanas are a common animal to see in Florida, Greenspan had no idea how this iguana managed to get into his home, let alone his toilet.

Luckily with a call to his friend and animal control, he was able to release the iguana into the wild where it belonged.

Unfortunately this is not the only time someone found a frightening animal in their toilet.

In July, Michelle Lespron found a 3ft black and pink coachwhip snake in her toilet, after she came home from vacation.

“I’d been gone for four days and was looking forward to using my own restroom in peace. I lifted up the lid and he or she was curled up,” Lespron, told The Associated Press. “Thank God the lid was closed.”

Lespron attempted to have her father remove the dangerous reptile, but that became too much of a challenge.

Even after she called Rattlesnake Solutions to handle the reptile, the handler still needed a few tries to catch the snake.

Bryan Hughes, the owner of Rattlesnake Solutions told the publication that incidents like this are a rare occurrence.
