Tokay Gecko Traditional Cache

Tokay Gecko is one of a number of exotic gecko species that are found in Florida in small breeding colonies. The exotics are mostly clustered around Miami and other cities where reptiles are imported. Colonies are started when specimens manage to escape or are intentionally released.

Just off of a hiking/biking trail. Not much shade on some of the trails. Be sure to bring plenty of water. You may get wet feet and bug spray is recommended depending on the season.
