But do they taste like chicken?

Hunted for its tasty flesh, the brightly colored forest monitor lizard can grow to more than six feet in length but weighs only about 22 pounds (10 kg), said Rafe Brown of the University of Kansas, whose team confirmed the find.

When I was a kid, we killed a lot of rattlesnakes. They didn’t taste like chicken at all…closer to frog’s legs (which I lo-o-o-ooove).

Tried alligator a few times…that’s more like monkfish than chicken.

I’m guessing the big lizards are somewhere between snake and gator.
