This is a lizard you wouldn't want to be bitten by. Meet the Gila Monster. This little lizard maybe small, but it's a nasty little creature that possesses a venomous bite. However, the venom is released with each bite the gila monster delivers. Meaning unlike snakes where it's just "One bite and bam! You're poisoned!", the gila monster actually chews its venom into its victims. They inhabit the southern states like Texas.
