Endangered lizard stalls development of 310,000 homes in Victoria

Sky News contributor Evelyn Rae has reacted to a “cute” lizard holding up the development of 310,000 homes in Victoria. Developers had to reconsider plans to build more housing near Bacchus Marsh after a Victorian Grassland Earless Dragon - thought to be extinct, was discovered by Melbourne Zoo in the wild late last year. “I never thought in my wildest dreams I’d be on the side of housing developers,” Ms Rae told Sky News Australia host Steve Price. “But have you seen that lizard? How cute it is. “I’m all for this right-wing environmentalism which is let's try and preserve life- it’s a life, but let’s do it reasonably and timely.”
