	leopard & crested gecko information at Gecko Haven
		Leopard geckos are desert dwellers, and the higher general humidity caused by misting will stress them out, and can lead to illness.
		Leopard geckos are insectivores, so their staple diet should consist of insects such as appropriately sized crickets and mealworms.
		Leopard geckos don't mind being handled in general, but they don't like to be handled a lot.

		Leopard Geckos are very clean, and will usually defecate in only one area of their tank, often in a corner away from their cave.
		Leopard Geckos' digestive system is very short, and there is a risk that the calcium cannot dissolve completely, which can lead to intestinal impaction.
		Leopard Geckos mainly eat live mealworms, crickets, waxworms, silk-worms, roach nymphs, and some keepers feed their Leopard Geckos newly born, hairless "pinkie" mice, especially to their egg-laying females in order to condition and fatten them up.

	ECONOMICAL UBERPANZER: The Leopard 2A6
		The first prototypes resembled modified Leopard 1A4s, using MBT-70 road wheels, but retained the Leo I return rollers, while the engine exhaust, located on the sides of the hull rear in the Leo I, was moved to the hull rear.
		As with all the tanks in the Leo II series, the Commander's sight allows for rapid target designation and handoff, whereby the commander can designate a target for the gunner using the commander's override and then, once the gunner has acquired the designated target, resume scanning for additional targets to designate.
		The A6 also has an advantage in that it is a follow-on improvement in the Leopard II series, which means that countries currently fielding older versions of the Leopard II can simply have their existing fleet upgraded to the A6 standard.
