As in a 1950s horror fiction, the authorities have put the authorities on alert inhabitants after that dozens of South American tegua white and black or red lizard that can grow to be larger than many dogs and about half the length of an alligator (almost five feet and four and a half kilos) have been spotted in 14 of the state's 46 counties. Many, according to what the broadcaster WHNS reports, were released into the wild by owners who they didn't know they would get so big. Tegus feed on other reptiles and the eggs of ground-nesting birds, such as turkeys.
