Bright green Giant Day Gecko from Madagascar are ready to inspire delight and answer the age old, perplexing question “Just how the heck do those geckos walk up a glass wall?” in Aquarium of the Bay’s new gecko exhibit, debuting Saturday, March 6, 2010. On opening day, the first 100 children will receive free admission to the Aquarium and have the opportunity to get up close and personal with the geckos, as well as more than 20,000 aquatic animals from San Francisco Bay and its watershed. Famous TV celebrity, the GEICO Gecko, will also be onsite to greet friends and fans from 10 am to 3 pm on the exhibit’s opening day.
This traveling exhibit, which is sponsored by GEICO and the Association of Zoos & Aquarium (AZA), will remain at Aquarium of the Bay through the end of April. Geckos are among the more than 16,000 plant and animal species currently listed as endangered by the World Conservation Union. More than 1,100 gecko species exist worldwide, living on every continent except Antarctica.
The exhibit will run through April 30, 2010.
