DAVIE, Fla. (AP) — Florida authorities have caught a huge lizard that has terrified residents of a suburban Miami neighborhood for months.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission said Thursday the Asian water monitor lizard measures more than 8 feet (2.5 meters) long.
The lizard is an escaped pet. It was first reported loose in August in a Davie neighborhood. Residents said it lurked in their backyards and scratched at their patio doors.

“Does Your Asian Water Monitor Lizard bite ?
“No”
“OUCH !
“I thought You said Your Asian Water Monitor Lizard didn’t bite.”
“It’s not My Asian Water Monitor Lizard.”
Well I was finally able to catch a kitten my wife recently adopted at the shelter. It was crying so much in the box home, she tried to comfort it in the car and it got out.
Apparently while looking for it at home, it escaped the car for two days. When I got home last night, I could hear her crying and lonely. Finally located her, but she wouldn’t come to me and ran and hide under cars, then in the bushes, etc.
I was finally able to catch her by leaving the front door open and she finally, slowly crept into the house and I was able to catch her then.
She has since settled down and is quite comfy in her new diggs.
