The most common sporting rifle in America should do the trick.
For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

I saw this video this morning.  It is a little closer to home than space lizards.

2 ft lizard? A shotgun with #4 shot should be plenty. I've killed plenty of 20-25# eastern wild turkeys with #4 and #6 shot 2.75" high brass 12 gauge loads.

Might be easier to hit them on the run also.
