Leaf-tailed Lizard, Gecko | What an amazing animal! 😯 #shorts #leaftail #gecko #lizard #amazing

The leaf-tailed gecko, a nocturnal reptile, navigates its rainforest home at night, preying on insects. It uses adhesive scales on its fingers and toes, along with strong curved claws, to move easily through the trees. These geckos employ various tactics to evade predators, including mimicry, flattening their body to reduce shadows, displaying a bright red mouth, and shedding their tail to deceive threats.
