There are over 1500 species of Geckos, globally, 150 of which live in Australia. Some Geckos have evolved sticky pads on their feet that are made up of millions of microscopic hairs, allowing them to stick to walls. Geckos are masters of disguise coming in all kinds of colours and patterns to blend into their natural environments. For example, the Leaf-Tailed gecko has a leafy shaped tail and tree bark colouring. The Spiny-Tailed Gecko can lighten and darken its skin to match its surroundings. The Marbled Gecko can remain incredibly still to blend into its rocky habitat. Do you love Geckos? Now you spell it out on your sweater with these geckos forming a secret word.. GECKO!
