Extremely beautifull ! I wish so hard they find at least one female and they breed !

It is not known if it is nocturnal, or whether it is a ground dweller or prefers trees. Nothing is known about its' breeding habits.
In fact it is soo rare they dont even know the basics !

Exclamation 17 January 2007

I note the date of this article is 17 January 2007. The end of the article states that Rob Chappell had plans to outfit this Hoplodactylus stephensi with a transmitter and release him in a predator-controlled area not far from where he was caught. It would be interesting to hear what happened. Does anyone know?

WOW! What a beautiful little guy. I really hope this deal works out! I would hate to hear that they were officially extinct.

According to wikipedia, they are listed as vulnerable. But then again, that is Wikipedia. I'm still curious.
