Gecko Geckos Indian Ocean Mayotte Amphibians And Reptiles
EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the intricate details and vibrant colors of a Gecko (Hemidactylus mabouia) native to the tropical island of Mayotte in the Indian Ocean. The island's unique biodiversity provides an ideal habitat for these agile and fascinating reptiles. Geckos are known for their ability to change color and blend seamlessly into their surroundings, making them expert camouflage artists. With their large eyes and long, sticky toes, they are well-equipped for a nocturnal lifestyle, hunting insects and other small prey. This particular Gecko was captured by renowned wildlife photographer M. Watson during a visit to Mayotte. The photograph showcases the Gecko's intricate scales, which provide both protection and camouflage, as well as its expressive eyes and delicate features. Mayotte is just one of many islands in the Indian Ocean that is home to a diverse range of amphibians and reptiles, many of which are endemic to the region. These unique creatures play a vital role in maintaining the delicate balance of their ecosystems and are an important part of the natural heritage of the Indian Ocean islands.
