Right? I've taken a bite from a tokay and it is by far one of the worst bites I've personally taken from a reptile. They do not let go. Only gecko I take seriously when they bark.

not me googling “do geckos bark” because i couldn’t tell if this was a play on words or you meant they literally bark.

Geckos literally bark and scream. They're mouthy when they're in a mood. It's pretty cute when the little guys do it.

FR! They only way I’ve managed to get them to let go is to hold it under water until it physically can’t hold its breath anymore, these assholes are abundant at my grandma’s farm.

I like the geckos we get here in Florida, they’re tiny and adorable. This one, on the other hand, is a big nope.

Lol, the geckos that come out in spring time in the desert around my house are also tiny and adorable. They are also Bros, and eat all the bugs that come around.

Ikr? This is such a big hell no from me as any kind of pet, or any interaction whatsoever. I was terrified for this freaking cat til the end.

This gecko got inside my house in Thailand and laid eggs, I was so scared.

It took me and my mom a whole night to make this big one go away because it keep hiding behind closets or refrigerator. Another weeks to drove all baby geckos out of my house.
