"Leaping lizards!"

Animal photobombs are the best kind of photobombs.

The evidence at this stage is overwhelming. Just look at this cheerful horse. And this one. Oh, and here's a smiley stingray. The list goes on.

Anyway, it turns out iguanas are good at photobombing, too. Take a look at this majestic proof, captured recently in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and shared on Instagram by photographer Tammy Ricks.

That image has since been shared on Reddit's r/pics sub, where it's been upvoted around 94,000 times.

Who knew iguanas could be such graceful beasts?
