Even a "Godzilla" the size of a lizard can cause havoc

Pictured here is the Sand Dune lizard of Texas, and it is apparently causing so much economical damage locals are calling it "Godzilla
".

You see Oil and Petroleum officials are looking to cultivate an area within Texas rich in oil for production.

Such a move could help create thousands and thousands of new jobs, which will increase the area's productivity, bring in more business, create other new jobs (restaurants, hotels, banking, insurance), and so on.

The only problem is that this Sand Dune lizard is on the cusp of being called an endangered species.

Should that happen then all 800,000 acres of the lizard's habitat (including the area filled with oil) will be declared off-limits.

No drilling, no productivity, no jobs.

This is why Texas Land Commissioner called it "Godzilla", because it seems to be just as destructive as the King of Monsters himself.
