"Colorado Man Fatally Bitten by Pet Gila Monster"
A Colorado man died after being bitten by his pet Gila monster, with the cause of death potentially linked to the lizard's venom. The man was hospitalized and placed on life support after the bite, eventually being declared brain dead. His girlfriend surrendered the lizards to authorities, and the creatures were sent to a sanctuary in South Dakota. Gila monsters are venomous but their bites are not typically fatal to humans.
