Tokay gecko — size comparison — facts and sources

The tokay gecko (Gekko gecko) is a large gecko of Asian tropical forests, also inhabiting rocks and buildings. Orange or reddish spots mark grey-blue skin.

Large eyes help nocturnal feeding, and powerful jaws grasp larger prey than small geckos can take. Adhesive toe pads permit vertical climbing. Loud calls help maintain territories and breeding contact.

It eats insects and other small animals. Eggs adhere to sheltered surfaces. Adults defend their areas rather than forming lasting herds.
