gecko n

·         Geckos are the only lizards that have a voice (often very loud- just like these kids).

·         Most geckos are nocturnal; they are most active at night (so are these kids; most work til dawn).

·         Geckos hunt for their prey at night (so do these kids, the prey being intoxicated foreigners leaving the bars in the early hours of the morning).

·         When a gecko is caught by its tail, it releases the tail, allowing the gecko to escape capture (similarity is their innate ability for survival)

·         Geckos live in South East Asia (so do these kids).

·         Geckos have no parental care (neither do some of these kids).

 

project n

·         a task or scheme that requires a large amount of time, effort, and planning to complete
