One of the most unusual animals on the planet is also called the fantastic leaf-tailed gecko. It lives in Madagascar, in the thicket of the forest, where it is almost impossible to notice the animal. The shape of the gecko's body resembles dry foliage. The prefix "fantastic" was given to the animal for the red eye color, which many individuals possess.
The length of the gecko's body can reach 14 centimeters, most of it falls on the tail. The body color varies from gray and yellow to brown. All representatives of this species prefer a nocturnal lifestyle, they have excellent eyesight, about 350 times better than human.
A gecko can be kept in captivity, at home, but offspring in this case can not wait. To date, the animal is on the verge of extinction.
