Wellington Green Gecko (Naultinus punctatus) enclosures

21 November 2020
Twin enclosures for the endemic Wellington Green Gecko, which had its "grand opening" yesterday (20 November). It isn't as large as I had expected it to be - I placed my camera lens cap at the bottom left of the enclosure for scale - but it is nice enough. It has the same reflection issues as the windows on the Hero HQ building (which can be seen reflected in the glass here).
 
I don't normally like this kind of exhibit style and I am not at all a fan of all of this superhero Marvel business but I really like this particular enclosure because of the way it is highlighting and showcasing a threatened native species.

The educational graphics are pretty good too, not my thing aesthetically really, but can't deny that this is excellent.
