Flying Gecko & Draco Lizard

The flying gecko is a very amazing reptile. It can glide! And here's how: it has these webbed feet. Now you may think it may be good for running across water like the basilisk lizard, but it actually uses it for gliding. It just spreads them out and you got the gliding power. And this isn't the only gliding reptile. There's another gliding reptile called the Draco lizard. Oh and "Draco" is a scientific name - so I'm proud of that. That's the only scientific name of a creature I know. Of course, I must tell you the reason of why these 2 creatures glide. Well just walking on the ground is dangerous - there are many predators. Who knows how you'd feel if you were such a small creature in a big place with so many predators. And on the plus side, it takes a lot of energy for just walking around and climbing up and down trees. These creatures of course need to climb trees though. That is, if they want to glide. Now the flying gecko has a few more advantages than the Draco lizard. Of course the gecko has camouflage. It can camouflage into trees.
