Gecko graveyard

Once again I find myself apologising to blog readers who're less drawn to our reptilish friends.
This is the inside of a pathside lamp at the Lost Civilisation trail at Sentosa. Disgusting... and it's not just one lamp... it's all the lamps by the pathway. Some poor design, that - geckoes attracted to the light for some reason (to get to the insects perhaps?), they slip in, get trapped, and get toasted to a crisp. You'd think you'd only see this kind of sight at traditional Chinese medicine stores.

see..this is what sets the ecologists from the rest of humanity.
Did you take some specimens back home to pickle with the Isopropyl alcohol I got you?
BTW - I left you a little gift behind. It can be found at the top of your bookshelf/cupboard. The one by the tripod collection. Go on, open it.
Poor lizards.. must send feedback to Sentosa !!
Perhaps this reflects on the self centredness of mankind. We have terms like eurocentric, egocentric, etc. Perhaps speciesentric? speciecentric? I found a similar word: speciesism.
hahahaa... just look at the contrasting comments. ecologists rulez :)
yeah... 'speciesism' might work, but i reckon 'anthropocentrism' is a graver discrimination.
