In the Amazon, the largest species of gecko can be found: called “briba” or “gecko”, it can reach 18 cm in length. She is almost two months pregnant. Your egg has a wall of 1 centimeter in diameter and its shell is hard. There are no poisonous species of gecko. Harmless, they help us to get rid of insects. The gecko uses its tail to defend itself: it lets go of the tail and, while the predator is distracted, it takes the opportunity to flee.
