Every master has its own master
Every time I think I have found the true master of camouflage, I come across an even better artist of mimicry. For the sake of fun, I'm not going to give you any clues on where exactly it is, where it begins or ends.
If you find it, imagine whether you would still find it in the wild, not knowing it was there, and the branch not being lit?
"Uroplatus sikorae" is a species of gecko commonly referred to as the Mossy leaf-tailed gecko. This species, endemic to Madagascar, is found in primary and secondary forests on the island. It has the ability to change its skin color to match its surroundings and possesses dermal flaps which break up its outline when at rest.
It is a CITES II protected animal due to habitat loss and overcollection for the pet trade.
