evidence: 1. Satanic Leaf-tailed Gecko (Uroplatus phantasticus) [...] Solitary creatures, these geckos rely on their natural camouflage to go unnoticed during the day, and at night when they move about to feed on insects and other prey. These animals are carnivores, known to eat a wide range of insects as well as the occasional small rodent or reptile. Leaf-tailed Geckos are well-adapted to avoiding predators, not only through their physical resemblance of a dead leaf but also through their behavior: flattening their body to reduce their shadow, or opening their jaw to show a threatening, bright red mouth.
