The gecko is a
small to medium sized lizard that lives in warm climates. There are over 1,100
species of gecko and most of them have thousands of hair-like structures on
their feet which help them to stick and climb slippery and flat surfaces. Keep
reading for more facts and information on geckos.

Geckos are small to
medium-sized lizards. They are found all over the world in warm climates. There
are over 1,100 different species of geckos. Several species, such as the House
Gecko, will enter houses and climb over the walls and ceilings eating insects.
Many people also keep geckos as pets in aquariums. The most common pet gecko is
the Leopard Gecko.Geckos range in size from 3/4 to 14 inches long.The life span
of a gecko can be as long as 30 years.Most geckos are nocturnal.

The largest gecko
is the Tokay Gecko and the smallest is the Dwarf Gecko.Geckos come in a wide
variety of colors, patterns and textures. Some geckos can change color like
chameleons.Geckos are different from other lizards, because they use vocal
chirps to communicate with each other.

Although some
geckos have claws, most have thousands of hair-like structures on their feet
which allows them to stick to and climb slippery and flat surfaces. Most
species of gecko have a clear membrane to protect the eyes instead of eyelids.
They also lick this membrane to keep it clean.If a gecko accidentally loses its
tail it has the ability to grow a new one.

A landslide or landslip are a natural
disaster, something which is unfortunately unavoidable. Landslides can vary in
size but usually they always involve a large ground movement. This can be
things such as debris and rock failing.  A landslide can occur on shore or
off shore and usually at coastal lines but it is the gravity that forces the
debris and rocks to fall and for a total landslide to occur.If an area has some
pre conditional factors, it could help to build up a lot of problems, sub surface
problems and conditions from arising.  The conditions could make the slope
to continuously product landslides.

The Causes of a
landslide :  Erosion – if this occurs, even just slightly, can make
some of the slope to fall in to oceans or rivers.   Glaciers can
also have a landslide – there is not much of a different from a cliff
top.  Instead, the ice melts or is subject to heavy rain and causes a
slight shift from a glacier.  Earthquakes – this brings about a sharp
change in the slope and makes it 
unstable.  Groundwater can destabilize the slope putting
pressure on it greatly.  

Volcanoes erupting –
this can cause the slope to become unstable.  Soil structure can
change.However, these are all natural causes for a landslide to occur but human
activities can contribute to cause a landslide.  Heavy machine
vibrations in the ground   Deforestation can make fragile slopes
unstable.

are very intelligent animals and they are benign to humans. This water mammals
are able to fascinate us in many different ways. These mammals live in a group.
They have been known to help humans in a variety of circumstances including
rescue and fishing.

There
are 36 species of dolphins that have been found. 32 species are dolphins the
sea is already well known by the people and 4 species are river dolphins. It’s
very interesting to see and learn about the dolphin species

Dolphins
can be very entertaining. They can jump out of the water. Some of them can jump
up to 30 feet in the air. The dolphins are grayish blue and his skin is very
sensitive to human touch and other objects.

Although
the dolphins have 100 teeth, they don’t use their teeth to eat. They use it to

Earthquake
Earthquake is a sudden shaking of the
earth’s surface that often causes a lot of damage. It is the result of a sudden
release of stored energy in the Earth’s crust that creates seismic waves. Earthquakes
may happen naturally or as a result of human activities. Smaller earthquakes
can also be caused by volcanic activity, landslides, mine blasts, and nuclear
experiments.

At the Earth’s surface, earthquakes can
be seen from the shaking or displacement of the ground. Sometimes, they cause
tsunamis, which may lead to loss of life and damage of property. There are two
types of earthquake that occurs naturally, they are tectonic and volcanic
earthquakes. Tectonic earthquakes are earthquakes that are caused by tectonic
plates getting stuck and putting a strain on the ground. The strain becomes so
great that rocks give way by breaking and sliding along fault planes.

Volcanic earthquakes are earthquakes
which are caused by themovement of magma in volcanoes. In volcanic regions
earthquakes may be caused both by tectonic faults and by the  movement of magma in volcanoes. Such
earthquakes can be an early warning of volcanic eruptions

The size of an earthquake is usually
reported using the Richter scale or a related Moment scale. Earthquakes which
are 3 on the Richter scale or lower are hard to notice. Whereas, those which
are 7 on the Richter scale causes serious damage over large areas.
