A monster lizard is terrifying a neighborhood in Florida.



Trappers, hunting dogs and state wildlife officers have been called in to try and catch the enormous alligator-sized lizard.



The Asian monitor is about six-feet long and is roaming an area around the city of Davie.



The lizard is not a native to Florida.



Trappers have been out searching for it to no avail.



Some neighbors believe that the lizard may actually be someone's pet that lives nearby.
