In our latitudes, the appearance of dangerous reptiles is rare, since the majority of these representatives of the fauna are safe for humans.

That is why many people look with affection at lizards that they encounter at their dacha or on a walk in nature.

But there are also dangerous representatives of this species that can threaten human life and health.

Which lizard can confidently claim the title of the most dangerous in the world?

Residents of Mexico and parts of the United States encounter a particularly dangerous species of lizard. We are talking about the Arizona Gila monster. The name itself is eloquent.

Few people know that this representative of the fauna is mortally dangerous: after an encounter with it, without medical assistance, a person can die.

This lizard is quite large: its size reaches 60 centimeters.

If the representative of the fauna considers that you threaten it, it will attack without a doubt. If you do not disturb it, the lizard will not attack.

However, it is worth understanding that the behavior of reptiles can be unpredictable for humans.
