CW: Lizard feces mentioned
Winnie (our resident feline) is having a beef with our resident gecko family; she spends the evening bullying them on the balcony, they spend the night revenge pooping on the balcony.
I'm impressed by how much a gecko can poop honestly! It's like if we could poop the equivalent of one of our legs every time.Alt text courtesy of @altbot (hopefully) as I'm on my way to the gym rn
TL;DR; TIL that geckos poop A LOT.

The ornate flying snake (Chrysopelea ornata) – also known as the golden tree snake – glides from tree to tree by flattening its rib cage and twisting through the air like a shimmering ribbon. Its vivid colouring makes it popular among collectors.

The brown tree frog, also known as the Hong Kong whipping frog, found in the Phnom Prampi cave in Battambang province, a designated natural heritage site. The frog gets its name from the way the female uses her back legs to whip up foam before making a nest for her eggs.

One of two millipede species collected during the survey (this one was discovered in Battambang in 2024), the vivid colouring of the Orthomorpha battambangiensis probably indicates that these millipedes are poisonous or, at the very least, unappetising for potential predators.

Four populations of the were found and identified as a new species: Cyrtodactylus kampingpoiensis. Despite being described as one species, it is thought that, due to the isolation of the karst formations, these four populations are separate in evolutionary terms.

Another species discovered during the survey, the Battambang leaf-toed gecko – Dixonius noctivagus (meaning ‘night wanderer’) – is covered in tiny leopard-like spots. Only two species of the Dixonius gecko genus have been identified in Cambodia, far fewer than in neighbouring Thailand and Vietnam, which indicates it is likely that further undiscovered species exist in the landscape.

A spectacular new species of pit viper (from the Trimeresurus genus) was found during the survey and is being described. These highly venomous snakes track down their warm-blooded prey using the heat-sensitive pits behind their nostrils.

A reminder, if it's needed, that smuggling geckos is a crime in New Zealand and you'll end up in jail.
I tip my hat to the Department of Conservation staff involved in the undercover sting to catch this smuggler.
