Default buick rendevous

hey i got a question, my stepmothers buick rendevous was dripping green fluid the other day on the garage floor. i thought it looked like coolant, but it is coming from the rear shock. does anyone know if this is shock fluid? does it look like antifreeze? thanks

I'd still check the antifreeze maybe it splashed up or something? I've never heard of shock fluid before nor of anything like that being green...
