HOW DO GECKOS PROTECT THEMSELVES?
losing Their Tails
Probably the best known defense mechanism of geckos is tail loss. This is just
what it sounds like: when a gecko is grabbed by the tail, the tail will detach and
keep moving on its own. This distracts the predator long enough to allow the gecko
to run away. Losing the tail does not cause the gecko any injury -- just some very
minimal blood loss. The tail then regenerates itself, so it can be used as a means of
defense

Camouflage
Some but not all geckos can change colors at will to mimic the environment.
This allows them to protect themselves by blending in with their surroundings
and becoming almost invisible to predators.

Sup Caleb,
ReplyDeleteI like how you made your poem rhyme. I think that you could have done a better job on spelling and punctuation because some of your poem doesn't make sense. In your poem are you a Lizard? I wasn't sure. Have a nice day my dude.
