Question: What things do you do as a gecko scientist?

At the moment, I mainly focus on statistics and predicting what’s likely to happen if we choose certain types of conservation. Generally, I’m focused on preventing extinction of threatened species and working out the best ways to help those species. When I’m able to travel again, I will be surveying species to understand where certain species are found on an island, which habitats they prefer and how they interact with each other as well as estimating how big each population is.
