Hello,

Has anyone from the CFHS been contacted by the Casselberry Police Dept. regarding this monitor and trying to capture it?

I just heard on the breaking news, in Orlando, that they are now shooting at it. And briefly talking with the Casselberry Police, they have been told by the FL Fish and Wildlife to shoot it.

Is there anything we can do to stop this? This seems to be based on FEAR. And the "unsupported" threat that it will attack small children. I have told the police dept. that it will run from humans. And when in the history of Orlando attacks,has there been a listed "monitor lizard" attack. I know of a LOT more Pitbull dog attacks but they are not shooting them on site!!!!

I am trying to get info on what has been done to capture this monitor and is it just going to end this way.

Sincerely,

Jeff Kapp
CFHS Orlando
