Common Leopard Gecko

Eublepharis macularius

Common Leopard Gecko

Adults live in dry grassland, rocky desert margins, and scrub across parts of South Asia and the Middle East. Nocturnal ambush hunters, they stalk insects, spiders, and occasionally small vertebrates from shelter. Unlike many geckos, they have movable eyelids and lick them clean.
