If you are so dead
set on hunting in Florida, leave our bears alone and hunt for real killers,
something that could and would eat your child!
Ah, Florida:
the home of sun,
sand, and cat-eating lizards.
5-Foot, Cat-Eating
Lizard Infesting Florida —
Snacking On Owls, Dachshunds And Yes, Cats
African lizards,
which are about five feet long, are prowling the state, looking for something
tasty to eat
and apparently
they’ve been known to eat cats.
One man believes the
Lizard is to blame for the disappearance of his Dachshund puppies, and someone
else noted that recently, there have been a quite a lot less feral cats running
around, the Sun Sentinel reported.
Called the Nile
Monitor, the creature doesn’t just eat cats.
It’s from
Sub-Saharan Africa and can grow up to eight feet certainly big enough for the
job.
In their native
land, they have been known to eat smaller animals, and Florida residents in
Cape Coral have blamed it for their murdered pets as well.
A cousin of the
Komodo dragon, the Nile Monitor is a threat to small mammals, reptiles, fish,
owls and tortoises.
Officials are trying
to mitigate that threat with an aggressive campaign to rid the Sunshine state
of the prowling, five-foot lizard.
