The incredible satanic leaf-tailed gecko does a spot-on impression of a leaf. “Thank you, thank you,” the gecko says. “I’ll be here for the three to five years of my expected lifespan.” (photo: Thomas Hatent/Hinden Pictures)

To avoid detection, leaf-tailed geckos will hang from branches, much like leaves.

Wouldn’t you agree they’re devilishly adorable?!
