powerful little paws

Geckos _______ famous for their extraordinary ability to climb walls and hang upside down even on slippery surfaces like glass. Many people think they have suction cups or some sticky liquid on their paws. Is not true! Microscopic bristles allow these reptiles to perform “dry adhesion”, through the so-called Van der force, by which materials attract. Such impressive abilities inspired inventions such as duct tape that mimics the properties of the pet's fingers to stick to and peel off surfaces.
