there are tons of wild dogs and wild cats running around loose all over the place. raccoons run rampant all over the place. armadillos carry leprosy. all these animals are potentially more dangerous than most large lizards. people live comfortably all over the south with thousands upon thousands of large alligators all over the place. one escapes and gets loose in a large waterway in california and suddenly the equavalence of jaws has been unleashed on civilized society. large pet lizards, that are often so tame that the owners' children have befriended them, get loose and just by being seen strike fear in the hearts of man. austrailians have large lizards, argentinians have large lizards (people who visit the public parks like to feed them), south africans have large lizards. people and lizard get along quite well together. for the life of me i cannot understand why people get so scared of escaped pet lizards.
