Snakes - Lizards - whatever - Ping.

If you knew the type of people that live in S Florida, Broward County especially, you6would cheer for more dragon lizards.

Four feet is a good-sized Nile monitor, but not extremely large.

When the Global Economic Collapse hits, they’ll eat rats ... maybe before the rats eat us.

I was shooting for bigger game. I shot two bucks. That was the biggest game I shot all day.

Good, I say. That’ll teach those darned owls to build proper nests in trees like any other self-respecting birds.

Live in a Florida neighborhood plagued with poisonous Cain Toads. One neighbor had a $900 vet bill when their dog bit one. Pythons are a known and well publicized major threat to our Everglades mammals and birds. Also lived in northern Virginia when the snakehead fish was introduced into our waterways, subsequently killing off much of the native fish population. Without natural predators, these introduced species decimate native species and ruin the established environment. These introduced species belong in zoos, not private homes.

OMG that was funny! LOL

It has been reported that they have cobras on the loose down there.

If true, isnt that a peach?

I will take AZ. You can have FL.

Did you hear what the Doe said as she walked out of the woods?

"I'll never do that for two bucks again."

Leave the lizards alone and deport the illegals.

[bgill]

What’s it taste like bbq’ed? Would it make nice boots?

[usconservative]

Or feed the illegals to the lizards....

Poor lizards might get indigestion though.
