Eublepharis macularius is a nocturnal cave lizard, which is native to the desert areas of India, Pakistan and Afghanistan. In the wild, the body color of adult leopard palace guards is usually light yellow or light brown with black spots, which looks like leopard print; There are many colors of artificially propagated leopard-print palace guards, and there may be differences in skin background color, stripe color and shape, spot color between different individuals, so the appearance of leopard-print palace guards becomes varied, and the price difference between different individuals is also great.
Leopard palace guard is a special member of the gecko family. They have movable eyelids to prevent sand from entering the eyes; They don't have suction cups (also called "toe pads") on their soles, so they can't climb walls or glass like ordinary geckos. The tail of the leopard guard falls off easily, so don't scratch their tail with your hands; Although it can be regenerated after cutting off the tail, the regenerated part is usually monotonous in color and not as good as the original one. Another function of the tail is to store excess energy, which can be supplied to the body when food is scarce, so the tail of the leopard-print palace guard will be very fat.
Wild leopard palace guards usually live in rocks or caves during the day to avoid the heat of the desert, and start activities at night, preying on insects, spiders and some small rodents.
