  • Tokay gecko facts - these are sometimes sold in pet stores in the US, but are definitely not an entry level pet.

    They are notoriously temperamental, can run incredibly fast on walls, bark and hiss when irritated, and have a locking mechanism on their jaw that makes it so they won’t let go after biting until they consciously decide to let go. They can be pretty good pets if handled properly, but chances are they were not if you see one in a pet store.


  • Tahoe resident reporting in. Hank the tank was a controversial figure up here. Her territory was primarily the Tahoe Keys gated community and she only developed her bad habits because people in that neighborhood couldn’t bring themselves to practice sensible bear etiquette with their trash management like most other neighborhoods in the basin.

    Keys residents largely wanted her gone and most other Tahoe residents were indifferent or wanted her to be left alone and for the keys neighborhood to instead make a concerted effort to cut off her food sources so she’d go back to more normal bear behavior.

    I’m just glad she is being relocated instead of euthanized.
