Monitor lizard gets stuck in heavy traffic

June 26 (UPI) -- A large monitor lizard was caught on video getting stuck in the middle of a busy road while trying to cross amid heavy traffic.

The video, filmed on a road in Nakhon Ratchasima, Thailand, shows the large lizard trying to cross the road, but getting stuck in the middle of the street when traffic doesn't give it an opening.

The filmer said the lizard was first spotted by her 8-year-old niece.

"Everybody look, a real dinosaur," the girl can be heard saying in the footage.
