Research gecko colours and patterns, then have fun colouring it in and decorating it. Cut it out and stick it up on your wall or your ceiling like a real gecko. Did you know that they can stick to walls and easily walk along ceilings? Watch this VIDEO to learn more about how the tiny hairs on geckos’ feet allow them to do this. This amazing ability is being studied by people all over the world who are trying to learn from the gecko. When people copy nature’s solutions to solve human problems, this is called biomimicry. There are people who have studied gecko’s feet to invent ways that they can climb up walls themselves. Even NASA scientists are studying gecko feet to create technology to use in space!
