Gecko is a common reptile, belonging to the lizard family, with unique biological characteristics and ecological habits. In recent years, gecko specimens, as the object of research and education, have gradually attracted attention. Making gecko specimens can not only help us better understand the morphological characteristics and living habits of this creature, but also play an important role in ecological protection education.

Geckos have a distinctive shape, usually covered with tiny scales, and a variety of colors, ranging from gray to green to brown, which allows them to effectively camouflage their surroundings. Their eyes are bright and lidless, they can be active at night, and they are accustomed to relying on their keen vision to catch insects, and mainly feed on insects. When preparing gecko specimens, it is necessary to carefully observe and record their overall morphological characteristics, including the length and width of the head, body, limbs and tail, as well as the color distribution.

In the preparation of specimens, the soaking and soaking methods are usually used to dispose of the dead geckos. First, the gecko carcass needs to be soaked in a bleach or alcohol solution to kill the bacteria and parasites in it and preserve its form. It is then fixed and filled with needle, thread and filling material to ensure that the specimen retains its original shape when displayed. In addition, after the specimen is made, detailed labels can be attached to indicate the type of gecko, collection time, place and ecological habits.
