Little Guy
Found this little guy hanging around a light outside of my neighbors house. It is a Mediterranean
Gecko (Hemidactylus turcicus).
Dr. Welch- I think I mentioned this to you earlier, but if my cat finds and kills one(and it isn't too mutilated), would you like a specimen for the lab? I don't think they are rare or threatened around Charleston. What would the steps for me to do when I do find it?
Where do you live? We have these in Charleston, so I'm curious about where else this introduced species is thriving.
