Habitat: northern Réunion (French island east of Madagascar)

Status: Endangered



This breathtaking gecko is the Réunion Island day gecko (Phelsuma borbonica). I remember a play back in highschool we did called Jospeh and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat and instantly this gecko reminded me of it.

For the life of me I could NOT remember the play’s name but after some frantic google searching I can now rest easy. Don’t you hate when you have an inkling of the name of something but just can’t quite remember it? Ugh.
