RARE FOOTAGE! The Gecko with the built in missile launcher!!!

Check out the Golden-tailed Gecko’s (Strophurus taenicauda) Threat display in slow motion. When under attack this Gecko has an incredible way of deterring predators. They open their mouths to show a blacky blue lining as a warning to stay back, just as the black mamba does. As you can see the beautiful golden tail is lifted like a scorpion and is able to squirt out a foul smelling and sticky liquid if the predator comes any closer making this one of the coolest geckos on the planet!
