Galapagos Marine Iguanas Fighting

Marine Iguanas generally settle disputes by head nodding or bobbing. When that fails, they result to violence. Here a pair go at it for a while with commentary in the background from a local researcher studying the grazing effects of the iguanas on seaweed communities in the islands.
Note the utter lack of concern over human presence on their behalf.
