Species: ptychozoon kuhlii (juvenile)
Location: Gopeng, Perak
Description: Kuhl's Gliding Gecko. These Gliding Geckos camouflage themselves very well against tree barks and has the ability to subtly change its color depending on its surrounding environment, heat and mood. They have webbed feet and flaps of skin growing from the sides of their body, tail and even head which gives them the ability to glide and 'parachute' from one tree to another. Another of the many reptiles in the wild under threat from poachers and collectors.
