Tuko or Gecko the endangered species

              The Tokay Gecko is the second largest Gecko species, attaining lengths of about 30–40 cm (11–15 inches) for males, and 20–30 cm (7–11 inches) for females, with weights of 150–300g (5–10 oz). They are distinctive in appearance, with a bluish or grayish body, sporting spots ranging from light yellow to bright red. The male is more brightly colored than the female. They have large eyes with a vertical slit pupil. Eyes are brown to greenish brown and can be orange or yellow.

Males are very territorial, and will attack other male Tokays as well as other Gecko species, as well as anything else in their territory. They are solitary and only meet during the mating season. Females lay clutches of one or two hard shelled eggs which are guarded until they hatch. Tokay Geckos feed on insects and small vertebrates.

               The typical lifespan is 7–10 years, however in captivity some Tokays have been known to live over 18 years.

People in the Philippines hunted Tuko or Gecko "Scientific name" because they have heard information that this lizard has highest exchange rate in money. People made Tuko(Gecko) as their source of income for their families. Now I am afraid that this specie will rapidly diminish, sooner or later we cannot see them again. People in different nations, I am knocking  everyone's hearts Please... Let us save the life of Tuko(Gecko). We must act now before everything is too late....
