Large Black-And-White Tegu Invades Florida County And 'Eats Everything,' Where Did The Invasive Lizard Come From?

Hillsborough County, Fla., which includes Tampa, is being overrun by a striped, four-legged reptile with a voracious appetite and a bite capable of turning human fingers into powder. The exotic black-and-white tegu, native to the tropical rain forests of South America, are breeding and eating their way through the Florida habitat. Experts fear the invasive lizard will displace native species that belong in the Sunshine State.
