Georgia is battling invasive, 4-foot-long lizards

In Georgia, officials are grappling with the emergence of Argentine black and white tegu lizards, which can grow up to 4 feet long. These invasive species are now hatching in large numbers during June and July, raising concerns about their potential impact on local ecosystems and agriculture. The tegu's ability to outcompete native species for food and habitat could disrupt the balance of local wildlife, making this a significant issue for environmental managers and farmers alike.
