Connect and Protect’ focuses on the Blue-tailed Day Gecko, endemic to Mauritius

The Blue-tailed Day Gecko (Phelsuma cepediana), a vibrant lizard with a green body and bright blue tail, is native to Mauritius and thrives in lowland dry forests. It aids pollination and feeds on insects and nectar. Facing threats from habitat loss and invasive species, long-term conservation efforts are crucial to its survival.
