Like Coals to Newcastle

Obviously, it's because Florida didn't have quite enough giant, carnivorous lizards yet.

Biologists in southwest Florida hope to trap a species of giant, carnivorous lizards native to Africa that appear to be spreading in the region. Cape Coral has become a haven for Nile monitor lizards, and their population has possibly reached the thousands, said Todd Campbell, a University of Tampa biologist who has started a project to monitor the monitors. Options include relocating or killing them.

Relocate thousands of giant, carnivorous lizards to where, exactly? Georgia? The EPCOT Center?
