who would have thought that something cute like this existed!
i think you're right, it has more slender body than the leopard gecko. furthermore, the leopard geckos are found in asia.. :D
looks like baby leopard gecko (Eublepharis macularius) perhaps it is someone's pet that escape.
Thank you, I found this little guy in my backyard.
