A British holidaymaker unwittingly transported a gecko the size of a two pence piece from Crete to Greater Manchester
The Mediterranean house gecko was found by Victoria Naylor when she returned to her home in Altrincham.
Ms Naylor spotted something moving in her case the day after her return on August 25, and two days later the gecko was spotted by her children climbing up a wall in their house.
She said: “I just saw something move from the suitcase but couldn’t find anything when I searched the room – and a couple of days later it appeared on a wall in the house.
“It was so tiny and it is remarkable to think this gecko managed to travel so far especially as the temperature would not be what he was used to.”
The family managed to contain the reptile, now named Gary, in a plastic container and fed it water before it was collected by RSPCA animal rescuer Jess Araujo.
