ID: Spotted house gecko

Stumbled upon by the guide/naturalist, this gecko seemed to have taken refuge onto a wall along the road, looking out for nocturnal preys. Probably, due to territorial fight or attack from predator, this beauty had shed its tail and almost started the regrowth of a new tail, which was pretty interesting to observe and document. Territorial fight could be one of the reasons as the very next day spotted this sharing the same space with two more geckos.

Location: Phansad

Very nice documentation. They can shed their tail to save life. This is an important behaviour. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
