🦎Leopard gecko

Eublepharis macularius (Blyth, 1854)

豹紋守宮(学名:Eublepharis macularius)又稱豹紋擬蜥、豹紋壁虎,因身體上的花紋類似豹紋而得名。廣泛分佈於中亞地區,一般生活在乾旱的灌木林裡,多以昆蟲為食。近年來,一些青少年越來越喜歡飼養爬蟲類的寵物,而蛇、蜥蜴、壁虎等爬行動物也成為了熱門寵物。豹紋壁虎體色奇特、性格溫馴,因此成了一些寵物愛好者的理想選擇,由於不少不法商人捕捉豹紋壁虎到寵物市場上出售,加上產地的灌木林不斷被人類破壞,使豹紋壁虎的生存出現了危機。 豹紋守宮是地棲性和晨昏性的蜥蜴,通常能在亞洲的高原地區和阿富汗到北印度一帶被發現,不像大部分的守宮,豹紋守宮具有可活動的眼瞼,由於牠們的爪並沒有吸盤,故此也不能夠爬到高處。它已經發展成一種能夠以人工飼養的寵物。
