Description:
The Leopard gecko is a terrestrial species native to the desert and semi-desert regions of Asia, particularly Pakistan, India, and Nepal. This gecko is easily recognized by its dark spots on a pale yellow background, giving it a unique appearance. Unlike other geckos, it has movable eyelids, allowing it to blink, unlike other species that have fixed eyelids. The Leopard gecko is a nocturnal predator, primarily feeding on insects and small invertebrates. It is popular in the reptile trade due to its calm temperament and ease of care.

Photography tips:
Photograph the Leopard gecko with soft lighting, preferably at night, to capture its vibrant colors and distinctive spots. Use a macro lens to capture the details of its skin and eyes. Be patient, as this gecko may spend long periods resting or hiding. It is also recommended to use natural lighting to highlight its colors without disturbing its nocturnal behavior.
