Meet the world's largest gecko, the New Caledonia Giant Gecko. These enormous geckos can grow to 35 cm, and live up to 20 years in captivity. They are endemic to the island of New Caledonia, where they dwell in trees.

Female geckos lay 2 soft-shelled eggs per clutch, and do so between 4-10 times a year. The eggs are extremely sticky. The temperature the eggs incubate at determines the sex of the babies, with higher temperatures resulting in shorter incubation times and more male geckos.

The National Zoo & Aquarium is home to 1 New Caledonia Giant Gecko, Cecil.
