Lizard named after The Doors' Jim Morrison

[Still Waters]

A giant lizard that lived up to 40 million years ago in the hot tropical forests of Southeast Asia has been named after The Doors' frontman Jim Morrison.

The 'lizard king' dubbed Barbaturex morrisoni was six-foot long and weighed around 68 pounds - more than an average nine-year-old boy - and is thought to be one of the biggest known lizards ever to have lived on land.
