What is a Gecko?
Geckos are small reptiles found in warm places all around the world. They are known for their amazing climbing skills, sticky toes, and wide eyes that help them see in the dark. Unlike many other lizards, geckos can make chirping sounds to talk to each other.
Most geckos live around 5 to 10 years and can grow from just a few inches to over a foot long. Their skin is usually soft with bumpy textures and fun patterns that help them blend in with their surroundings. They love to hide during the day and come out at night to hunt bugs like crickets and moths.
Geckos can stick to walls and even walk on ceilings because of tiny hairs on their toes. Some can even drop their tails to escape danger. They are quiet, quick, and full of surprises, perfect for curious little explorers to learn about and color.
