The Madagascar day gecko is a vibrant lizard native to the island of Madagascar. It is known for its bright green body, which can sometimes display blue or yellow spots. These geckos are diurnal, meaning they are active during the day, and they primarily inhabit tropical forests, where they can often be seen basking in the sun. This species can grow up to 12 inches long and has a diet that includes insects and nectar. The Madagascar day gecko is also popular in the pet trade due to its striking appearance and relatively easy care requirements. However, habitat loss poses a threat to their populations in the wild.
