Giant Lizard Attacking Beirut??
EFL....from the BBC, no lessIn Lebanon, a giant lizard has been roaming the streets of a Beirut suburb for several weeks, eluding all the attempts by the authorities to catch it. He?s Lebanon?s own Komodo Dragon, or so say the witnesses who have seen him. Komodo Dragons are an endangered species and live in Indonesia. It?s believed that the one living just outside Beirut was brought to Lebanon by a German who lived here and eventually set him free. About three months ago, one person sighted him, but his tale was dismissed as that of a crazy person. But when pets started disappearing, people started paying attention. The civil defence has stationed dozens of personnel all over the area, but it lacks the sophisticated equipment needed to catch the lizard without harming it. Posted by: Baba Yaga 2003-09-01 |
