Persian Dwarf Sand Gecko
In the end of September 2007 Doctor Dharmendra Khandal - the Field Biologist of Tiger Watch - went on a tour of the Thar desert in Rajasthan with a few of his friends. I could not join them because that is the time we have to start getting out Lodge in Ranthambore - The Ranthambhore Bagh- ready for the tourist season, that starts on the 1st of October.
The most interesting find was this little Persian or Sindh Dwarf Sand Gecko that they found in the Barmer district of Western Rajasthan. This is the first time that this gecko has been reported from anywhere in India. Keep it up Dharmendra.
