If your list is a scalar then the previous replies will work excellently, if you mean 'list' as an array reference, i.e.: my ($temp) = [121, 122, 123, 124, 125, etc...] you could use
foreach $id (@$temp) {
# do things with $id
}

or if you wanted a different way, you could assign it to a hash: 
@hash{@$temp}=@$t;
foreach $id (keys %hash) {
# do things with $id
}

with this method you can use the hash to determine if your id exists using the id itself, e.g. 
if ($hash{120}) {
# id 120 exists
}
