Geckos are small to middle size lizards. Lizards are reptiles. There are 1196 different kinds of geckos. They love in many warm countries. Some kinds of geckos go into people's houses. People are often happy to have them because geckos eat 38 many insects.
Unlike most lizards, geckos have voices. A gecko sounds a little like a bird or a frog. In some langueges these lizards have names that sound like their calls, for example, both English and Indonesian call one kind gecko (gek KO) and tokay (to-KAY). Another kind of gecko, with a different sound, is called chicak (CHEE cak).
Geckos have no eyelids. Instead, they have a clear membrane (skin) over their eyes. They lick the membrane clean with their tongue. Like most lizards, they can regenerate their tail if they need to.
Many kinds af geckos can walk on walls, windows and ceilings. They can do this because they have special toe pads. A microscope can show that each toe pad is made of thousands of hair-like structures. Each of these structures branches into many smaller ends.
Why do some people like to have geckos at their home?
Because they eat many insects
Because they have different voices
Because they can walk on the walls
Because their tails can be regenerated
