EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Tokay Gecko: A Nocturnal Hunter on the Walls of Bohol, Philippines" This evocative image captures the essence of the Tokay Gecko (Gecko gecko), a fascinating and historically significant reptile species, in its natural habitat after a night of hunting for insects. The Tokay Gecko, native to Asia, is one of the largest and most common geckos found in the region. The photograph, taken in the beautiful island province of Bohol in the Philippines, showcases the Tokay Gecko perched on the corner of a weathered building, its vibrant green and black body blending seamlessly with the textured wall. The gecko's distinctive crested head and large, expressive eyes are illuminated by the soft glow of the ambient light, highlighting its intricate, patterned skin. As the sun sets and the night descends, the Tokay Gecko comes out to hunt, using its remarkable ability to change color and blend into its surroundings to ambush its unsuspecting prey. Insects, including crickets, grasshoppers, and moths, are among its favorite food sources. This nocturnal behavior is essential for the survival of the Tokay Gecko, as it allows them to conserve energy during the day and maximize their hunting opportunities at night. The Tokay Gecko holds historical significance as well. In the Philippines, it is known as "tuko," and its call is used in traditional healing practices. Its distinctive, loud and resonant cry is said to resemble the sound of a bamboo tube being struck, and it is believed that the sound can ward off evil spirits and bring good fortune. This photograph not only showcases the beauty and adaptability of the Tokay Gecko but also highlights the rich biodiversity and cultural heritage of the Philippines and the Asian continent as a whole.
