Well, here he is! Frank (I'm calling him Frank until the students democratically select a name) is probably going to be our class pet!
He's a leopard gecko rescued from the devastation of Hurricane Katrina last year. Frank did not emerge from the catastrophe unscathed; he contracted health problems that have since been resolved but keep him from being proper, acceptable breeding stock. He's healthy now, and reportedly has a great personality.
The students and I have graciously accepted a donated tank from one of the parents, and are waiting to find our gecko to get the rest of the necessary equipment for his habitat in our class room.
