When February 24, 2022

Where: Dierenpark de Oliemeulen Tilburg, the Netherlands

For how common they are - or perhaps, used to be - in zoos, we really don't see them properly that often.

Being Malagasy fans, we go a little fan-girl-crazy when we do.

Species: Madagascar Giant Day Gecko (Madagascar dag gecko)

Latin name: Phelsuma Madagascariensis Grandis

Originates from: Madagascar.

Did you know:

…Handling the Madagascar Giant Day Gecko might not be the best decision, as it has very sensitive skin. In fact, their skin is so sensitive, that when you feel like holding the Reptile but the Reptile doesn’t, he’ll try to wiggle away – when you don’t do it right, it can leave scars on its body.
