HOT LEOPARD GECKO NEWS folks!
National Geographic has posted a photo of a new leopard gecko species. Discovered only Cat Ba Island National Park in Vietnam. It’s now being called a Cat Ba leopard gecko. Its’ one of more than 160 species found in 2008 in the Greater Mekong area around Vietnam. This Cat Ba National Park has moist tropical forests that create a unique environment. These animals probably evolved over the last 7,000 to 8,000 years and because it’s an island, they evolved separately and uniquely most likely.
By classifying these stunning cat ba leopard geckos as rare and endangered, hopefully they can be preserved and kept safe.
Check out the stunning pic of the cat ba leopard gecko courtesy of those awesome folks at National Geographic.
