A safe home for life.
Mango is a six-year-old leopard gecko who came to live with Nichola when his previous home could no longer give him the care he needed. He now helps teach children and adults about reptiles, welfare and responsible pet ownership.
Leopard geckos come from warm, dry parts of Asia and often hide in rocky crevices and burrows. Mango’s home has safe hides, a carefully monitored warm side and a cooler side, so he can choose where he feels comfortable.
What does Mango eat?
He eats suitable feeder insects such as crickets and locusts. His care also includes fresh water, appropriate calcium and vitamins, and a natural day and night routine.
Before bringing any pet home, it matters to understand the space, food, healthcare, cost and lifelong care they need. Mango’s second chance is a lovely way to start that conversation.
← Back to the animalsLeopard gecko fact
A leopard gecko can release its tail to escape danger, then grow a new one. The replacement tail can look different from the original.
