Chuckwallas are noted for their wide, flattened midsections and prominent paunch. Their tails are also notably thick, tapering to a blunt tip. I beleieve this is a Juvenile Sonoran Spiny-tailed Iguana.

Hello. I think this is a chuckwalla. They're known for wedging themselves into a crevice and inflating themselves so a predator can't extricate them.
