Striptease
“One day, near Longreach in Queensland I was lucky enough to spot this tessellated gecko starting to shed its skin,” says Jasmine Vink. Not many people realise that geckos shed, just as snakes and other reptiles do. Although geckos shed their skin all year round, they do so more often in summer when they’re feeding frequently and growing. This behaviour is rarely seen – or captured on film – because they feel vulnerable while shedding and generally find a secure place to hide while they slough off their skin.”
