This is definitely not the friendly little Gecko with the British accent that you may have seen on the auto insurance commercials. In fact, this lizard may be one of the lizard-haters worst nightmares because they fly! Technically, they don’t actually fly but the are capable of gliding through the air for short distances. How do you think you would feel if you looked up one day and saw one of these things flying through the air towards you?
