Gila
| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Gila is a reptilian monster who appears in the Scott Ciencin Godzilla novels, Godzilla: Journey to Monster Island and Godzilla vs. the Space Monster.
Origins
Like Kamacuras, Kumonga, and Sasori, Gila is implied to be a result of experiments with size-changing technology conducted at a secret facility in the Nevada desert. They were possibly experimented on directly after hatching, born from the egg of a parent that was a test subject, or experimented on while in the egg.

Godzilla Invades America
Gila was implied to be among the numerous creatures caught in the accident at the Cryo Chem laboratory, transforming the girls monster gigantic. Unlike his fellow monsters Kamacuras and Kumonga, Gila did not set out to create a larger nest elsewhere, and stayed behind with his smaller comrades alongside Varan, Rattler, Yellowback, Gopher, Armie, Gecko, and Chuck. After the nest was reported to the military, plans were made to destroy it, but upon their arrival only eggshells were found; Kumonga and Kamacuras had evacuated the nest.
Godzilla: Journey to Monster Island
Gila would later be part of the procession of monsters following Godzilla to what would become Monster Island. After a battle broke out between some of the larger kaiju in the procession, Gila and the other younger monsters fled into a crowded city and had to be calmed by the psychic twins Roy and Amy, and led out of the city.
