    It could just be shrink/swell of groundwater and clay formations, they may have shrunk during the extended drought and are now getting wet again.

    There are 2 wells within 10 miles of the epicenter.


    HOWEVER, 1 of them was built, but then never used (never used fracking)

    The 2nd well did use fracking..but earthquakes began in the area several months before the well started fracking.

    I was thinking a Texas-themed Kaiju: perhaps a giant steer or horned frog.
