Americans Alexander Rust, 24 and Vanessa Palm, 23, appeared in court Wednesday.
The pair are suspected of harvesting under-sized conch and killing and eating a critically endangered species.
The Wild Animal Protection Act imposes a fine of $300 and a six-month jail term for possession of an iguana. Violation of the Fisheries Resources act can lead to a $5,000 fine and year in prison.
The pair are expected to return to court on Tuesday, February 10.
