The Tokay gecko or "Tuko" in Philippine dialect (also known as the Gekko gecko) is a nocturnal arboreal gecko whose native habitat is the rain-forest trees and cliffs. The Tokay gecko is commonly found in northeast India and Bangladesh, throughout Southeast Asia particularly in Philippines and western New Guinea. It is said to be that Tokay Gecko is the second largest Gecko species, attaining lengths of about 30–40 cm (11–15 inches) for males, and 20–30 cm (7–11 inches) for females, with weights of 150–300g (5–10 oz).
Many people believed that the Tokay Gecko’s tongue can cure AIDS. Some believe that its meat is also an aphrodisiac while its blood and bile suppresses tumors in cancer patients.
There are also rumors that foreigners/buyers bought these reptiles because the liquid that can be produced out of it is used to cover prohibited drugs which cannot be detected by any type of detectors.

According to some dealer, the price of Tokay gecko become more expensive, as it reaches from Php 50 000 to Php 10 million per item. That's why many people are thinking about the real purpose of Tokay Gecko. Is it really a medicine or just another ingredients of prohibited drugs?

para sa akin wlang gecko na umaabot ng 350grams to 400grams.... kaya malakas ang loob nila na mag presyo ng milyong kc alm nilang walang ganun kabigat..... may alaga kmi reach n nya ang saktong sukat... pero ang timbang ay 250grams lng.... bibigat lng cguro ito kapag kumain ng mga bato.....
maybe tama ka kasi marami ang ngsasabi na hindi uma-abot ng 300-500 grams ang tuko subalit may kakilala kasi ako na binili yung tuko nila for more than a million at ngayon wla na kaming balita kng saan cla lumipat,, talamak talaga ang bentahan dito sa lugar namin dito banda southern mindanao naka check-in pa ang mga buyers mula europes korea and china,, at may nakapagsabi din na pawang mga doktor ang mga ito.....
